The negro Shanghai proved more loquacious. He trudged at the end of the line leading a big hammer-headed brute which he often addressed as "Faro." "Who owns these hawsses?" repeated Shanghai.

It was a clear night, and the ground was reasonably hard. They ate hard salt beef and cold army bread made with corn meal, grease, and water the night before. "Leave here in the early mornin'."

He offerin' to see her home after the illumination. I knowed he wuz to be trusted, and they went off, Blandina lookin' up happy and adorin', he happy, patronizin' and lookin' down. Both on 'em contented creeters. He leadin' her a willin' victim to where the biggest named articles wuz and explainin' 'em to her in words more'n two inches long, I'll bet, but if anybody is happy that's enough.

"Well, what did you tell him, Josiah Allen?" "I told him, Samantha, I would consider it." "And," sez I, "have you been all this time, months and months, a considerin'?"

But effen it was me I'd know mighty quick what to do." "What?" said Sandy, eagerly. "Buy a dawg." "A dog? I ain't goin' blind." "Lor'! but you're a softhorn," said Ricks, contemptuously. "I s'pose you'd count on leadin' him round by a pink ribbon."
"The sun's goin' down when we starts fur the depot, Uncle Jake drivin', 'n' me settin' behind, leadin' the colt. The sunlight's red, 'n' when it hits that chestnut colt he shines like copper. Say, but he was some proud peacock! "I sends word to Miss Goodloe we're comin', 'n' she's waitin' at the gate. The colt nickers when he sees her, 'n' she comes 'n' takes the lead strap from me.
