"All right, mother," shouted Will. "Gude-night to 'e. I be off this moment." Then bidding his friend farewell, he departed. "Doan't think twice o' what I said a minute since. I was hot 'cause you couldn't see no wisdom in my plan. But that's the way of folks.
"Thae twa lines will do for a 'Gude-night," said David in the pause at the end of the psalm, and James rose with a sigh and wrapped his plaid around him.
