Oh! What had George Worlicht been doing, when you were home?" "Don't you think Georgie is wonderful?" fluttered Mrs. Gilson. "He makes me rue my thirty-six sad years. I think I'll adopt him.
I'm crazy with this puttering around, trying to woo you and having to woo the entire Gilson tribe. Let's run away!" "No; first I'm going to convince them that you are what I know you are."

He found Queen Anne Hill, found the residence of Mr. Eugene Gilson. He sneaked about it, slipped into the gate, prowled toward the house.

Just as he thought that he had escaped, Saxton begged, "Oh, Daggett, I was arguing with a chap What color are Holstein-Friesian cattle? Red?" "Black and white," Milt said eagerly.

"It's a good idee to occasionally instruct the stummick that it mustn't depend excloosively on licker for its sustainance." "A blessin'," he cried; "a blessin' onto the hed of the man what invented beans. A blessin' onto his hed!" "Which his name is GILSON! He's a first family of Bostin," said I. . . . .
