"'Mis' Garrison said t' order a couple o' partridge on ye, says he, 'an' she wants 'em at tew o'clock. "'All right, says I; 'yew go home an' tell her 't she shall have that 'ere order filled eout complete, says I.
It brings 'em eout jest below the pint. We have got neow to cross over to the pint, huggin' the bank, so the critters shan't see us, and take a shot from there. Git yer piece ready, Captin.

"Well, I was a-thinkin' that, that bein' so, an' Jim an' Sairy thinkin' so much o' 'nother, it wa'n't o' no use fur them ter keep waitin' along year eout an' year in fur a chance tu keep house by 'emselves.
