An' let be what may, I'd strive to do my part by a niece o' yours an' THAT I've done, for I've taught her everything as belongs to a house, an' I've told her her duty often enough, though, God knows, I've no breath to spare, an' that catchin' pain comes on dreadful by times. Wi' them three gells in the house I'd need have twice the strength to keep 'em up to their work.
'Anyway, I'll take 'em up on a charge of unlawful possession, pending inquiries. And the magistrate will deal with the case. Send the afflicted ones to a home, as likely as not, and the boys to a reformatory. Now then, come along, youngsters! No use making a fuss. You bring the gells along, Mr Peasemarsh, sir, and I'll shepherd the boys.
"Look at the clock, do; why, it's going on for half-past nine, and I've sent the gells to bed this half-hour, and late enough too; when they've got to get up at half after four, and the mowers' bottles to fill, and the baking; and here's this blessed child wi' the fever for what I know, and as wakeful as if it was dinner-time, and nobody to help me to give her the physic but your uncle, and fine work there's been, and half of it spilt on her night-gown it's well if she's swallowed more nor 'ull make her worse i'stead o' better.
If yo have a sweet tooth an it's t' way wi moast gells I conno see as it can be onythin else but Providence as gave it yo. So get yorsel soom bull's-eyes, Louie, an an' he looked a little conscious as he slipped the coin into her eager hand 'doan't let on ti your aunt! She'd think mebbe I wor spoilin your teeth, or summat, an, Louie Was Uncle Reuben gone mad?
Poyser hastened to the door for the pleasure of looking at her darling in a new position, with love in her eyes but reproof on her tongue. "Oh for shame, Totty! Little gells o' five year old should be ashamed to be carried. Why, Adam, she'll break your arm, such a big gell as that; set her down for shame!" "Nay, nay," said Adam, "I can lift her with my hand I've no need to take my arm to it."
He stroked the satin head, and said in his gentlest voice, 'How do you do, Lizzie? will you give me a kiss? She put up her little bud of a mouth, and then retreating a little and glancing down at her frock, said, 'Dit id my noo fock. I put it on 'tod you wad toming. Tally taid you wouldn't 'ook at it. 'Hush, hush, Lizzie, little gells must be seen and not heard, said Mrs.

No, Martha Corkle, wages is 'igh, no doubt, fortunes to what they were when we were gells, but not 'igh for the worry; and bein' in service ain't what it were."
There was none to note in the few words he uttered. "Your little girl is growing into a woman, Fuller," said his lordship. "That's the way wi' most gells, my lord," said Fuller. "Good-afternoon, Miss Ruth," said the old nobleman, nodding and smiling. "Good-afternoon, my lord," said Ruth. Ferdinand's attentive ear noted again the absence of the district accent. He removed his cap and bowed to her.
The children were all in the cottage now, and the door was shut. "I want you never to let on who told you. Let them think it was your own unaided pluck and far-sightedness."

'Oh, of course we don't know all about that, no more we don't oh no course not! And dragging little gells into it, too. 'Ere I'll let the gells go if you'll come along to the pleece quiet. 'We won't be let go, said Jane heroically; 'not without the boys. It's our money just as much as theirs, you wicked old man.
