Then Bill Chambers took and forced 'im into a chair and give 'im two o' gin and patted 'im on the back, and at last Henery Walker got 'is senses back agin and told us 'ow the tiger 'ad chased 'im all round and round the trees in Plashett's Wood until 'e managed to climb up a tree and escape it.
Perhaps 'tis high time. I believe Farmer Boldwood kissed her behind the spear-bed at the sheep-washing t'other day that I do." "What a lie!" said Gabriel. "Ah, neighbour Oak how'st know?" said, Henery, mildly. "Because she told me all that passed," said Oak, with a pharisaical sense that he was not as other shearers in this matter.
Henery Walker got into trouble for leaning over Charlie Stubbs's fence and feeding his chickens for 'im, and Sam Jones's wife had to run off 'ome to 'er mother 'arf-dressed because she had 'appened to overlay a sick rabbit wot Sam 'ad taken to bed with 'im to keep warm. "People used to stop animals in the road and try and do 'em a kindness especially when Mr.
Phoebe herself, with a courage which developed from the moment of her marriage, took the initiative. "It never answers," she said, solemnly, "to marry one of the flock; I knew it, Henery, and I told you so; and if you would be so infatuated, and marry me when I told you not, for your own interests " "They're all jealous of you, my pet, that's what it is," said Mr. Beecham, and laughed.
He always signed his name "Henery" strenuously insisting upon that spelling, and if any passing schoolmaster ventured to remark that the second "e" was superfluous and old-fashioned, he received the reply that "H-e-n-e-r-y" was the name he was christened and the name he would stick to in the tone of one to whom orthographical differences were matters which had a great deal to do with personal character.
"'Ow it got out I can't think, but I lost it for three hours, and I'd about given it up when your little Jimmy brought it to me in 'is arms. He's a fine little chap and 'e does you credit." Joe Clark tried to speak, but he couldn't get a word out, and Henery Walker, wot 'ad just come up and 'eard wot passed, took hold of 'is arm and helped 'im home.
And the owner of the French car he yells out to old John Bull, 'You're going a nice pace for an old 'un, he says. Old John has a blink down at the indicator. 'We're doing twenty-five, he yells out. 'Twenty-five grandmothers, says the bloke; but Henery he put on his accelerator, and left him. It wouldn't do to let the old man get wise to it, you know."
You see he was passin' 'em so fast he thought they were all comin' towards him. "And Henery sees a mate of his comin', so he lets out a notch or two, and the two cars flew by each other like chain lightnin'. They were each doin' about forty, and the old man, he says, 'There's a driver must be travellin' a hundred miles an hour, he says. 'I never see a car go by so fast in my life, he says.
He's done a good many things has Bob, but it'll be a long time afore Claybury men'll look over that. It was Henery Walker's idea. Henery 'ad been away to see an uncle of 'is wife's wot had money and nobody to leave it to leastways, so Henery thought when he wasted his money going over to see 'im and he came back full of the idea, which he 'ad picked up from the old man.
"Well, it finished Henery, killed him stone dead, of course, and the old man he was terrible cut up over losin' such a steady, trustworthy man. 'Never get another like him, he says." We were nearly at our journey's end, and we turned through a gate into the home paddocks.
