But Heman pushed his way past her and escaped, muttering something about "feedin' the critters." Perhaps the "critters" under his care were fed oftener than those on farms where the ingle-nook was at least as cosey as the barn.
Brian, ludher them two lazy thieves o' dogs out o' that. Eiree suas, a wadhee bradagh, agus go mah a shin! be off wid yez, ye lazy divils, that's not worth your feedin'! Come over, honest man." Owen and his family were placed near the fire; the poor man's heart was full, and he sighed heavily. "May He that is plased to thry us," he exclaimed, "reward you for this!
The barn ain't big enough." "The Turnbull barn is. I've seen the day when there was forty head o' cattle tied up there from fall to spring." "The Turnbull barn's twenty minutes' walk from here. You can't go over there mornin' and evenin', milkin' and feedin' the critters. You'd be all the time on the road." "Yes," said Myron, "'tis a good stretch. So I've made up my mind we'd move over there."
"I dun declar ter you dat we'd all be at de bottom, feedin' fishes, if I'd dun wot you ax. Been no use nohow. Young Marse Houghton mus' got cotched in de riggin' or he'd come up an' holler. I couldn't dibe a'ter 'im in de dark, and in dat swashin' sea." "Stop your cursed croaking. If you had known how to manage your boat it wouldn't have happened." "I dun my bes', boss.
He needs feedin' and restin' up. That boy your boy?" "That kid! Huh! I picked him up when he was starvin' to death over to Enright. I been feedin' him and his no-account dog for a year, and neither of 'em is worth what he eats." "So? Then I reckon you won't be missin' him none if I take him along up to my place." The horse-trader did not want to lose Young Pete, but he did want Annersley's money.
Bristow, over on the other side from here he's got a big drove of hawgs." "Well, mebbe so," said the man; "but hawgs is a heap more apt to be feedin' on high ground, seems like to me. Well, I'll be gittin' along towards town. G'day, squire." And he slapped the lines down on the mare's flank and jogged off through the dust. He could not have suspected anything that man couldn't.
The Boy hastily dragged Red and Spot upon the scene. "How much?" "Seventy-five dollars apiece." The man laughed. "Ain't you heard the dog season's over?" "Well, don't you count on livin' to the next?" The man pushed his slouch over his eyes and scratched the back of his head. "Unless I can git 'em reasonable, dogs ain't worth feedin' till next winter."
They're reel friendly fur the kind o' people they air. They're druv to death. It can't be far frum their time to git up, ennyhow. They're up every mornin' uv thar lives long afore daylight, a feedin' their stock, an' gittin' ready fur the day's work. I used ter hear 'em 'n' see 'em, when we wuz campin' here.
"It strikes me," said he, "that John Himes had a hearty constitution and hadn't ought to died as soon as he did. He fell away a good deal in the last years of his life." "And considerin' that he died of consumption, he had a right to fall away," said Asaph. "If what you are drivin' at, Thomas, is that Marietta isn't a good housekeeper and hasn't the right sort of notions of feedin', look at me.
He read all he could get to read about them, and studied the best conditions under which to rear them, sacrificed everything he could to breed better birds, and this was always a topic for him to discourse upon. "I was just busy feedin' them when he cam' in, and after he had examined her, I asked him hoo she was gettin' on."
