If so, I hope poor Jass will have a wider life than has evidently fallen to the lot of this good lady. And then, as it struck him that they were all sitting silent in most constrained discomfort, he thrust aside his reflections and forced his attention to return to the present. 'Perhaps I had better be looking up my quarters at the inn, he said, rising.
"She reckon dem biscuit goin' git her by Sain' Petuh when she 'proach de hevumly gates! Uhuh! I tell her she got git redemption fo' de aigs she done ruin dese many yeahs; 'cause she as useless wid an ommelick as a two-day calf on de slick ice!" Here he laughed loud and long. "You jass go and talk wid dat Mamie, some day, Missy; you'll see how vain dat woman is."
Then, as her mother, after kissing her again, was turning to leave the room, telling her she really 'must go to sleep, the little girl called her back for a moment. 'Mamma, dear, she said. 'If you don't mind, would you please not say anything to Jass about what we've been talking of. Mrs Mildmay looked a little surprised. 'Why not, dear? Why should I not tell her as well as you?
And as you have got so thoroughly in the way of having secrets from me, and now that you have friends you care for more than me, I really don't see why I need to be mixed up in this affair at all. 'Oh Jass, dear Jass, don't speak like that, exclaimed Frances, the ever-ready tears starting to her eyes. 'I couldn't help it. Read again what mamma says. 'I know what she says, Jacinth replied.
I don't want Lady Myrtle to think we've been quarrelling up here. Frances swallowed down a lump in her throat, which was far too apt to come there on small provocation. 'Of course Lady Myrtle would never think such a thing, or if she did, she would only think I was naughty or silly or something. She'd never dream of you being anything but perfect, Jass. I do like her for that, said Frances.
'Only yesterday! she said. 'I don't see how I have got this letter so quickly. I thought it was at least the day before. 'No, said Frances, 'it was only yesterday. We went a long walk in the afternoon, and of course we didn't see you till this morning. We couldn't have told you till just now, and I thought I think I thought Jass was waiting to speak to you alone after breakfast.
I shall take it into consideration, any way, my dear mother; and she smiled a little. 'Yes, Frances, she went on, looking up, and speaking more decidedly; 'of course I'll tell Lady Myrtle. I think I'll go and tell her now. I know she is alone in the boudoir. And, Francie, you may tell Eugene. 'May I? exclaimed Frances, jumping up. 'Oh, thank you, Jass.
"Honey, my Law!" he exclaimed, "But yo' pa de 'ceivin'dest man! He mighty proud er you!" "Proud of me!" She turned to him in astonishment. Nelson's laughter increased. "Hain't be jass de 'ceivin'dest man! Yessuh, he de sot-uppest man in dis town 'count what you done last night. What he say dis mawn', dat jass his way!" "Ah, no!" said Miss Betty, sadly. "Yes'm!
Steve's a-goin' atter ole Brayton I'm goin' too Steve didn't kill Jass hit wusn't Steve hit wusn't Rome hit was " The last word stopped behind his shaking lips; he rose suddenly in bed, looked wildly into the miller's startled face, and dropping with a sob to the bed, went sobbing to sleep. Old Gabe went back to his pipe, and while he smoked, his figure shrank slowly in his chair.
'And suppose I go to Robin Redbreast too, said Frances, 'what am I to do? 'I thought you said Jacinth was the one who would go, said Bessie. 'Oh well, replied Frances, who had raised the difficulty partly out of half-petulant contradiction, 'I am pretty sure it will be Jass. I don't think Lady Myrtle noticed me much, and I don't want to go.
