He's been took in like many another man. What I look at is this: he won't squeak. How are they to find out that we had any hand in it? 'That's what I'm dubersome about, says father, lightin' his pipe again. 'Nobody down there got much of a look at me, and I let my beard grow on the road and shaved clean soon's I got back, same as I always do.
One of the pensioners was speaking, and continued: "May be, or may not be, Mr Forster, that's dubersome; but if so be as how he is alive, why you'll see him soon, that's sartain take my word for it. A good son, as you say he was, as soon as he can get over the side of the ship, always bears up for his parent's house.
"Oh no, I couldn't stop to listen to such wicked talk." That wuz jest like deacon Gansy; he thought he wuz awful religious but I always felt dubersome about it. But on we went through the matchless beauty of the drive. And anon we ketched a view of the blue tostin' waves of the Atlantic, the air jest as fresh and invigoratin' as when it blowed unto Columbuses weary foretop when he discovered us.
But Sister Lanfear sprunted up, and brung Jacob right into the argument, and the Isrealites who borrowed jewelry of the Egyptians, and then she brung up other old Bible characters, and held 'em up before us. But still we some on us felt dubersome.
Jest after this I met Bildad, and he sez, "I jest see Josiah; he wuz in Steeple Chase Park, talkin' with some girls there." I didn't wait to ask what they wuz talkin' about, I hoped it wuz religion, but felt dubersome, and hurried there fast as I could.
As nigh as I could make out the impropriety consisted in wimmen's follerin' after Justice and Right. Josiah's face looked dubersome. I guess he wuz worryin' over his offer to represent me, and thinkin' of Aunt Susan and the twins.
There wuz quite dubersome looks all round the room when she handed in the money and went right out, for she had a errent to the store. And Sister Gowdy spoke up and said she didn't exactly like to use money got in that way.
And then another sister spoke up and said the hull property belonged to Sister Grimshaw, every mite of it, for he wuzn't worth a cent when he married her she wuz the widder Bettenger, and had a fine property. So, sez she, it all belongs to Sister Grimshaw, by right. Then the sisters all begin to look less dubersome.
Mebby it wuz the young Future she wuz a-learnin' to tell the truth, anyway, no matter how much it hurt him, how hard it hit aginst old custom and prejudices. He wuz a-leanin' affectionate on her, but his eyes wuz a-lookin' away fur off. Mebby he'll hear to her, mebby he will he's young; but I feel kinder dubersome about it. She held her glass dretful high.
If apples is riz an' I gits two dollars an' a quarter a bar'l, ob course I keeps de extry quarter, which don' pay anyhow fur de trouble ob pickin' 'em. But de six dollars I gibs, cash down, ter Mahs'r Morris. Don' you call dat puffectly fa'r an' squar, Brudder 'Bijah?" 'Bijah shook his head. "Dis is a mighty dubersome question, Brudder Gran'son, a mighty dubersome question."
