"But you YOU what will become of you? You'll be ketched!" "I'll manage to get away," he said in a low voice, "ef ef" "Ef what?" she said tremblingly. "Ef you'll put the heart in me again, as you did!" he gasped. She tried to laugh to move away. She could do neither. Suddenly he caught her in his arms, with a long kiss, which she returned again and again.
Wall, the Honey ketched up Fanny in a jiff, and tossed her out, and was out herself afore I knowed it, and I was jest a goin fur to git out when the teams cum together kersmash, and I was pitched head fust clean over Wycoff's sled inter the road, and would no doubt hev been killed but my time hadn't come.

"There's a dreffle lot o' that peppergrass out in deep water there, jest where I ketched the big pick'ril," he said quietly. "I seen it nigh a foot high, an' it 's juicier and livin'er than them dead sticks in your book."

I was thinking of cocoa-nuts and getting one down to bale with. I shall have to use my cap. It's wonderful how it's stuck on. I ketched it slipping off twice, though, when we were creeping through the wood."
Of these he ate until he cared for no more, and then, like a full- fledged tramp, strode down the dusty road. "I ain't goin' ter be ketched 'fore their old school begins, fer if I AM ketched, they'll make me begin with the others, an' I ain't a goin' ter, but after its goin' on two weeks, then I'll be safe. They won't bother me then, an' I'll hang around the schoolhouse an' make things lively!"

In using his ax to chop down a sapling he kim across, what did he do but cut his foot, and it was bleeding like fun when I ketched his shouts, and kim up.
He ketched a frog one day, and took him home, and said he cal'lated to educate him; and so he never done nothing for three months but set in his back yard and learn that frog to jump. And you bet you he DID learn him, too.
They played too open, unt I knew they'd soon get ketched. Who did you get in the house?" Si started to call over the names, and to recite the circumstances, but as he reached that of Brad Tingle, Rosenbaum clutched him by the arm and said earnestly: "Hold on. Tell me the rest after a while. I'm afraid of that man. He's come pretty near getting on to me several times already.
