"Well, the fact is, I come out by myself. You see, Laviny's gone up to Sarah B.'s to talk church doin's. I I well, I kind of wanted to speak with you about somethin', Keziah, so Oh! I didn't see you, Gracie. Good mornin'."
"Here here I be, Laviny," faltered Kyan. His sister appeared on the threshold. She was dressed in her Sunday best, flowered poke bonnet, mitts, imitation India shawl, rustling black bombazine gown. She looked at Mr. Pepper then at the minister. "O Mr. Ellery!" she exclaimed, "be you here?" The Reverend John admitted his presence. Miss Pepper's demeanor surprised him.
"She's done it and there ain't nothin' in there but her remains. Oh, my soul!" Ellery, now rather frightened himself, shook him violently. "Be quiet, you idiot!" he commanded. "We must go in. Give me the key." After repeated orders and accompanying shakings, Kyan produced a key. The minister snatched it from his trembling fingers, felt for the keyhole and threw the door open.
