I had to rise early to get a start from town, and the ride kind o' whetted my appetite to a sharp edge, so that I was really ready for anything she wanted to pass; but, geewhilikins! when we all slid our chairs out into that dining-room, where everything was as white as snow and shiny as a new dollar, and where green things was stuck about all around, I begun to know what high living was.
Roney gave utterance to a single word, "Geewhilikins!" and started for the house on a run. Into the kitchen, where his wife was just starting the fire, the excited man burst like a whirlwind. "Come out here, Mary!" he cried. "Come out here, quick!" The worthy woman, unaccustomed to such demonstrations, looked at him in amazement.
For all their haste the men found tongue as they passed that dismal pyre. They sniffed the air. "Coffee burning! good Lord, ain't it a sin? Look at those boxes shoes as I am a Christian man! And all the wall tents like 'Laddin's palaces! Geewhilikins! what was that? That was oil. There might be gunpowder somewhere! Captain, honey, don't you want us to treble-quick it?"
