A spy-glass lay within reach, enabling him to overlook the yard-work without rising from his chair; and on the table were his farm-books, with the record of crops and improvements entered in regular order with his own hand.

"And who was that?" "It was my nephew, Ishmael Worth, sir," replied Reuben, with a little pardonable pride. "Ishmael Worth again!" exclaimed the judge. "Yes, sir; he done 'em both."
