But one russet afternoon we were in Richmond, and a terrible type was shouting himself hoarse with "'Eavy British lorsses orful slorter o' the Bo-wers! Orful slorter! Orful slorter!

But w'en Mr. Bayard, 'e come to go, sir, the old gent follows 'im to the landin' just where 'e was when he spoke to you, sir, before 'e 'ad the stroke and 'e says to 'im, says 'e: 'Remember, I cawst you off.
"Tomkins, sir," murmured the originator of the brain-wave, slightly abashed by the unexpected praise. "We might," remarked another of the world's workers, thoughtfully sucking his teeth "we might 'ave a trap-door, a 'eavy one, to let down over the 'ole once they was in."

The odd numbers shifted to the right of the gun, the evens to the left, but numbers "4" and "6," being apparently under the impression that it was a game of "musical chairs," found themselves on the right instead of the left.

Fritz was sending 'em over by the 'undreds, whizz-bangs an' 'eavy stuff all mixed up gorblimy, 'e don't 'alf give yer what for!" There was a temporary lull in the conversation and then a small, wiry, spiteful looking Cockney spoke. He had reddish hair and big round spectacles of the army pattern.
