"He doesn't take to farm work; an' he's that peart I durstn't speak to him. Queer thing if we've got to keep the young upstart in idleness." "Idleness!" quoth Miss Hepsy wrathfully. "I'd take a rope's end to him if he didn't keep a civil tongue in his head.

Lirriper that man is in possession here, and I have not a friend in the world who is able to help me with a shilling." It doesn't signify a bit what a talkative old body like me said to Miss Wozenham when she said that, and so I'll tell you instead my dear that I'd have given thirty shillings to have taken her over to tea, only I durstn't on account of the Major.

An she gaed passt me like a puff o' wind as cauld as ice an I wor mair deed nor alive. An I luked afther her, an she vanisht i' th' varra middle o' t' path.

"I say, what shall we do?" cried Bob. "We must take off our clothes and swim for it," said Bigley. "No, no," I cried, for the idea was appalling. "Let's stay here."
