Consequent, if I ride not thees horse like the cannon-ball, my thought HE arrive first, and where are you? You get left! Believe me that I fly thees horse, thees old Mexican plug, and your de' uncle 'Ennery and his leetle old idea arrive all the same time, and on the instant."
With 'Ennery waiting down in the road they tramped all over the hills again, standing first on one spot and then another to survey the alluring prospect, and to plan wonderful new and attractive features of which no previous summer resort builder had ever even dared to dream.
"Seems to me I've heard it," said Thaddeus. "As I remember it, Harry, it was very pretty." "It is," said Bradley. "It's the one you mean 'Oh, 'Lizer! dear 'Lizer! Mrs. 'Ennery 'Awkins.

"Blow me, 'Ennery, d'ye twig what 'e meant?
"Morning, 'Ennery," he said, addressing the chauffeur with a squeaky little voice in which, though after forty years of residence in America, there was still a strong trace of British accent; and then his calculating gaze rested calmly in turns upon the other occupants of the machine. "Good morning, Mr. Gifford," returned the chauffeur. "Fine day, isn't it?"
