He came down, and a tall, powerful, well-fed man, evidently in his Sunday smock-frock and clean yellow leggings, got up and began: "I hav'n't no complaint to make about myself. I've a good master, and the parson's a right kind 'un, and that's more than all can say, and the squire's a real gentleman; and my master, he don't need to lower his wages.
Then the question was repeated, backed up by the glimmering pistol, "where are those men?" The old man held to the wall, and his knees smote each other. "They are gone," he said. "We hav'n't got them in the house, I assure you that they are gone." Here there were sounds and whisperings in the main building adjoining, and the lieutenant strode to the door.
"Now, now," cried Moggy, slapping her elbow, "hav'n't I got the dog, and won't I cut him up into sassingers and eat him in the bargain, if you won't give me my dear darling Jemmy and all his papers in the bargain?" "Man the boat," cried Vanslyperken. But no one would obey the order. "Look here," cried Moggy, flourishing a knife which she had borrowed from the man in the boat.
"Here's a good health and a long life to our gracious king and all the royal family. The roads are unkimmon dusty, and we hav'n't wet our lips since we left St Thomas on the line, this morning. But we have no time to lose, captain," said the sea god; "I see many new faces here, as requires washing and shaving; and if we add bleeding and physic, they will be all the better for it."
His thoughts were disturbed somewhat brutally by a voice behind. "Still careless of your life! I see you hav'n't brought your gun with you. How did you know that it wasn't 'Die, that I wanted to say?" He turned lazily round, and was surprised at the altered expression which had come into Spurling's face. It was frank and self-reliant, and, oddly enough, had a look that was almost tender.
I don't know how that may be, sir, but I gave my approbation to the match; and I really am not accustomed to have my advice or opinion neglected or controverted. Yet, on the other hand Enter a Footman with a note, which he gives to Mr. I hav'n't a word. Mr. Carv. Here's news will make you all in as great astonishment as I own I am. Old McB. What is it? Randal.
They are nothin' but animils, as you say, and I don't see why any body should treat an animil like a human bein. They hav'n't no sense of what you do for 'em." "Oh, ye needn't be afraid o' my blowin'. I never blowed about old Tilden, as you call 'im, an' I never expect to," said Jim. "That's right," wheezed Mr. Buffum. "It's just as well."
"No matter though, I know many chaps that hav'n't got any, good luck to 'em; and they are all the better off for it. A soul's a sort of a fifth wheel to a wagon." "What are you jabbering about, shipmate?" said I. "HE'S got enough, though, to make up for all deficiencies of that sort in other chaps," abruptly said the stranger, placing a nervous emphasis upon the word HE.
Renton was perfectly grave, and had spoken slowly and seriously. The man was at his wits' end. "You'll do it, James, will you?" "Ye-yes, sir, certainly." "That's right. James, you're a good fellow. James, you've got a wife and children, hav'n't you?" "Yes, sir, I have; living in the country, sir. In Chelsea, over the ferry. For cheapness, sir." "For cheapness, eh? Hard times, James? How is it?"
And tell that Jim, that's always loafing around you, to make himself useful as well as ornamental, and open them oysters that were brought from Cove Banks to-day. Why don't you go? what are you waiting for?" "Please 'm, I hav'n't shook hands long o' Marse Ishmael yet," said Sally, showing all her fine ivories.
