When we went to the house Mr. Stewart said, "Weel, when are you douchy bairns gangin' to the kirk?" They left it to me, so I set Thanksgiving Day, and as there is no "kirk to gang to," we are going to have a justice of the peace and they are to be married here. We are going to have the dandiest dinner that I can cook, and Mr.
By the time Ailie and Tammy had worked swiftly down to the bottom of the Row other children began to follow them, moved by the peril of the little dog to sympathy and eager sacrifice. "Bide a wee, Ailie!" cried one, running to overtake the lassie. "Here's a penny. I was gangin' for milk for the porridge. We can do wi'oot the day."
But, oh! everybody had pennies and halfpennies and farthings, and she and Tammy together had a sixpence. Darting back to the gate, to catch the laddie before he could be off to school, she ran straight into the policeman, who stood with his hand on the wicket. He eyed her sharply. "Eh, lassie, I was gangin' to spier at the lodge, gin there's a bit dog leevin' i' the kirkyaird." "I I dinna ken."
"Ay," said the boatman, with a lazy, significant glance at the consul, "it wull be a lesson to me not to trust to a lassie's GANGIN' jo, when thair's anither yin comin'." "Give way," said the consul sharply. Yet his was the only irritated face in the boat as the men bent over their oars.
At nicht he would walk a' ower the hoose, and he had lamps hung in every room and corner, so that no pairt should be dark. Many's the time frae my room in the garret I've heard his futsteps comin' and gangin', comin' and gangin' doon one passage and up anither frae midnight till cockcraw.
Gin I keep snug an' canny it wullna gang to the heart. Jeanie, woman, fetch ma fife, wull ye?" Then there were strange doings in the kirkyard lodge. James Brown "wasna gangin' to dee" before his time came, at any rate.
She continued the conversation to include Tammy as he came around the kirk on his tapping crutches. "Hoo mony years is it, Tammy, sin' Bobby's been leevin' i' the auld kirkyaird? At Maister Traill's snawy picnic ye war five gangin' on sax." They exchanged glances in which lay one of the happy memories of sad childhoods. "Noo I'm nineteen going on twenty. It's near fourteen years syne, Ailie."
As I approached he rose, and came to meet me with the brogues in his hand. "Man, Peter," said he, "I maun juist be gangin'." "Going!" I repeated; "going where?" "Back tae Glenure the year is a'most up, ye ken, an' I wadna' hae ma brither Alan afore me wi' the lassie, forbye he's an unco braw an' sonsy man, ye ken, an' a lassie's mind is aye a kittle thing."
'Lassie, are ye dementit? her mother almost screamed. 'We're this minute come frae there! 'He is wi' Phemy, mother. The Lord canna surely hae pairtit them, gangin in maist haudin hans! 'Kirsty, I haud ye accoontable for my Steenie! cried Marion, sinking on a chair, and covering her face with her hands.
Noo, what I am gangin' to do wi' the takin' bit I dinna ken." It is very certain that simple Mistress Jean Brown had never heard of Mr. Dick's advice to Miss Betsy Trotwood on the occasion when young David Copperfield presented himself, travel-stained and weary, before his good aunt. But out of her experience of wholesome living she brought forth the same wise opinion.
