You see I've got a cousin what reads a sight, and one day he says to me, 'Nat, in a book I see somethin' about a set of spoons with a 'postle's head on each of 'em; you make some and they'll sell, I bet. So I got gramper's Bible, found the picters of the 'postles, and worked and worked till I got the faces good; and now it's fun, for they do sell, and I'm savin' up a lot.
Up to a certain moment his exaltation was intense, his scared soul expanding to greater deeds. Then he coughed rather alarmingly. But that was to be expected. He drew in another breath of the stuff and coughed again. It was an honest cough; no doubt about that. Perhaps Gramper's cough had been honest. Perhaps the pipe he had selected was Gramper's own pipe, the one that made coughs.
The boy, however, returned the glances bent upon him, and answered the smiles with such a cheerful grin that the youth with the cigarette called out, "Good-morning, Skipper! Where do you hail from?" "Island, yender," answered the boy, with a gesture of his thumb over his shoulder. "Oh, you are the lighthouse-keeper, are you?" "No, I ain't; me and Gramper's fishermen now."
