Why, Aunt Jane'll just tumble over herself ter get ye, if ye just mention first what yer'll PAY. She'll begin ter reckon up right away then what she'll save. An' in a minute she'll say, 'Yes, I'll take ye." "Indeed!" The uncertainty in Mr. Smith's voice was palpable even to eight-year- old Benny. "Oh, you don't need ter worry," he hastened to explain.
I ought t' be thankful William Henry didn't begrudge me them years. An' I am thankful! Yes, I am thankful, an' somehow I believe the good God ain't goin' t' let my heaven be blighted. In some way, He's goin' t' set it straight fur us three over there! Maybe Susan Jane'll kind o' hanker arter the care I gave.
Well, I'll find out afore I sleep, or my name ain't Meg-Laundress, an' I say it. Guess Jane'll open her eyes when I up an' tells her how one them grand folks she sees crossin' the bridge so constant has got astray in the Lane an' come a visitin', actilly a visitin', one our own folks. But then, I always knowed, we Elbowers was a touch above some, an' now she'll know it, too.
If I don't haul it over, Sally Ann and Jane'll tote it over between 'em, and if they can't put it into the church by the door, they'll hist a window and put it in that way.
Didn't I have him up here at my house not long ago? Jane'll tell you that I like him. She likes him, too. But the trouble with him and with you, too is that you're dreaming all the time. You don't recognize facts. And, so, you make a lot of trouble for us conservative men." "Please don't use that word conservative," said Charlton. "It gags me to hear it. YOU'RE not a conservative.
"And now, young man, I'm at your service," he smiled, as he joined Benny, still prancing on the sidewalk. "Now he's what I call a real nice pleasant-spoken gentleman," avowed Miss Flora, when she thought speech was safe. "I do hope Jane'll take him." "Oh, yes, he's well enough," condescended Mrs. Hattie Blaisdell, with a yawn. "Hattie, why wouldn't you take him in?" reproached her husband.
"Jane'll be real sorry to-morrow to find you've gone away, I guess; but never mind, it can't be helped. If she has a kind of a dull time with Mirandy, on account o' her bein' so sharp, why of course she'd set great store by your comp'ny. Mother was talkin' with her after prayer meetin' the other night. 'You wouldn't know the brick house, Sarah, says Jane.
Wal, wal, I must git along hum Mariar Jane'll be wonderin' where I be. Good night, all on ye!" and Biah's retreating wagon wheels were off in the distance, rattling furiously, for, notwithstanding Maria Jane's wondering, Biah was resolved not to let an hour slip by without declaring the wonderful tidings at the store.
Eliza Jane'll get top lofty if she finds she ain't naturally dependent on James B. It don't do fur some women t' know their wuth." Janet laughed. "It helps others!" she answered lightly. When the dinner dishes were disposed of, Janet took her sunbonnet and started off for Bluff Head. The day was hot and the road dusty.
"I don't doubt as Jane'll be better content to be earning her own living again, though she's not been eating the bread of idleness, and I'm sure she couldn't start again in a happier way to herself, so I'll tell her your most kind offer; and may the Lord reward Sir Lionel and yourself for it." No man in the United Kingdom journeyed homeward that day in a happier frame of mind than Thomas Bradly.
