"Co spills things so, and the boys quarrel when you and the Boarder ain't here to keep peace. It was jest orful this noon. You wasn't here and the Boarder kerried his dinner. 'Cause Flam put too much vinegar on Milt's beans, Milt poured it down Flam's neck, and when I sent him away from the table he sassed me." "Jiminy!" protested Amarilly indignantly.
"I know the place, Walky," he agreed. "That's where it happened," said Walky Dexter, nodding his head many times. "I was crossin' the stream, thinkin' nothin' could happen, and 'twas jest at sunup. I'd come six mile, and was jest ha'f way to the farm. I kerried that piller-case over my shoulder, and slung from the other shoulder was a gun, and I had a hatchet in my belt. "Jefers-pelters!
"Aunt Melvy, do you tell fortunes by palmistry?" asked Ruth. "Yas'm; I reckon dat's what you call hit. I tells by de tea-leaves. Lor', Miss Rufe, you sutenly put me in min' o' yer grandmaw! She kerried her haid up in de air jus' lak you do, an' she wuz jus' as putty as you is, too. We libed in de ole plantation what's done burned down now, an' I lubed my missus I sutenly did.
Those grim guns that bore upon them, and the angry faces of Jerry, Frank, yes, and Andy, impressed them deeply. "Examine them, Will. Do you think either has been injured?" asked Frank. "'Course they ain't. How could they be when I kerried 'em carefully. Them scratches was on ther camera afore I touched it, I'll swar to that!" exclaimed Pet, really alarmed by this time.
She hed on a green silk dress, an' a lace cape that was like a skeeter nettin' over her neck an' showed her bare skin through, an' a hat like an apple orchard in full bloom, hummin'-bird an' all. Dixie kerried himself as proud as Lucifer. He didn't look at the minister 'n' he didn't look at the congregation; his great eyes was glued on Fiddy, as if he couldn't hardly keep from eatin' of her up.
Only occasionally Ruth turned her head, for she needed her full attention upon the oar which she managed with such difficulty. "We gotter p'int up-stream," growled Uncle Jabez, after wringing his neck around again to spy out the landing near Lakeby's store. "Pesky current's kerried us too fur down." He gave a mighty pull to his own oar to rehead the boat.
Why, there's Barzillay Smith, over to Peat's Corner, has kerried a potato in his pocket for five years, not the same potato, y' know; changes 'em when they begin to sprout, and he hesn't hed a touch o' rheumatism all that time. Not a touch! tol' me so himself." "Had he ever hed it before?" asked Dame Hartley. "I d'no as he hed," said Mr. Slocum, "But his father hed; an' his granf'ther before him.
Simmons had, to use her own language, "kerried him before the Lord, and wrastled for him;" but it was very evident, from Sam's walk and conversation, that his case had not yet been adjudicated according to Mrs. Simmons's liking. He still had occasional difficulties with the hat-stand and stairway after coming home late at night; his breath, though generally odorous, seemed to grieve Mrs.
'Some ornery critter kem along while I was upstairs, says she, 'an' seed it lyin' thar on the table, an' kerried it off! says she. 'I'd like to get hold of her! says she; 'I guess she wouldn't steal no more bunnits for one while! says she. I had come in by that time, an' she was tellin' me all about it.
"I hain’t noticed nothing" answered Judy, who chanced to be out of sorts, because, as she said, "the white folks had done et up every atom of egg; they didn’t even leave her the yaller of one!" "Well, suthin in his laugh kerried me back to the old plantation in Carlina, and I b’lieve, between you and me, Judy, that Marster William’s here," said Katy.
