It's been sung for every new-married couple since I was a boy. And what can be better? Here Mr. Hackit stretched out his left arm, threw back his head, and broke into melody 'O what a happy thing it is, And joyful for to see, Brethren to dwell together in Friendship and unity. But Mr. Barton is all for th' hymns, and a sort o' music as I can't join in at all. 'And so, said Mr.
Hackit observed, more and more 'close-fisted', though the growing propensity showed itself rather in the parsimony of his personal habits, than in withholding help from the needy. He was saving so he represented the matter to himself for a nephew, the only son of a sister who had been the dearest object, all but one, in his life.
Hackit followed with Sophy and Patty, and then came Nanny with Walter and Fred. It seemed as if Milly had heard the little footsteps on the stairs, for when Amos entered her eyes were wide open, eagerly looking towards the door. They all stood by the bedside Amos nearest to her, holding Chubby and Dickey.
Hackit would any time let his horses draw a load for 'the parson' without charge; so there was a blazing fire in the sitting-room, and not without need, for the vicarage garden, as they looked out on it from the bow-window, was hard with black frost, and the sky had the white woolly look that portends snow.

The words of recognition burst from both at once. "What! Adam Woodcock at court!" and "What! Michael Wing-the-wind and how runs the hackit greyhound bitch now?" "The waur for the wear, like ourselves, Adam eight years this grass no four legs will carry a dog forever; but we keep her for the breed, and so she 'scapes Border doom But why stand you gazing there?
She was not a woman weakly to accommodate herself to shilly-shally proceedings. If the season didn't know what it ought to do, Mrs. Hackit did. In her best days, it was always sharp weather at 'Gunpowder Plot', and she didn't like new fashions.
Hackit is a shrewd substantial man, whose advice about crops is always worth listening to, and who is too well off to want to borrow money.
