How she worked and toiled to keep 'em comfortable and git 'em headed right, washin', cookin', makin', and mendin'; learnin' 'em truthfulness, honesty, and industry with their letters; teachin' 'em the multiplication table and the commandments; trimmin' off their childish faults, same as she did their hair; clippin' 'em off with her own anxious lovin' hands.

"Gien I but kent what to du!" said Malcolm, for the thousandth time. "Ye can at least gang whaur ye ha'e a chance o' learnin'," returned his friend. "Come an' tak yer supper wi' me the nicht a rizzart haddie an' an egg, an' I'll tell ye mair aboot yer mither." But Malcolm avoided a promise, lest it should interfere with what he might find best to do.

For myself, after careful study, I inclines to the theery that Colonel Sterett's knowledge is the widest, while Peets's is the most exact. Both is college gents; an' yet they differs as to the valyoo of sech sem'naries. The Colonel coppers colleges, while Peets plays 'em to win. "'Them temples of learnin', says the Colonel, 'is a heap ornate; but they don't make good. This is doubted by Peets.

"Wiry, then, I heard Father M'Mahon himself say that he had great learnin', an' must a' had fine broughten-up, an' could, act the real gintleman whenever he wished." "Is it known who he is, or whether he is a native of this neighborhood?"

This was the first time she had made any conscious effort to correct herself, the first evidence she had given that she had noted the difference between his speech and hers. "I didn't mean an institution, but a real school, Lou," he explained gently. "One where you'll have no uniform to wear, and no work to do except to learn." "I quit learnin' when I was twelve."

"Why, when her father was a poor boy, the Squire thought he would take him and bring him up to learnin'; but when he came to be a man grown almost, he ran away to sea; and long afterwards we heard of his marryin' some outlandish girl, half English, half French, but Rachel's no worse for that.

It's like reading a page out of a romance to see the expressions on the faces of the city people as they buy the products of the country." "Ach, I don't know what you mean. I guess you got too much fine learnin' for me. But all I can see in market is people runnin' up one aisle and down the other to see where the onions or radishes is the cheapest." Amanda laughed. "That's part of the romance.

She say, 'Sambo, you don't b'long to me now. "Dey bound us young Niggers out. Dey sent me an' my brother to a man dat were goin' to give us some learnin' 'long wid farmin'. His name were Overstreet. Us worked dat crop out, but us aint never seen no speller, nor nothin'. "Den us went back to Stephenson's, where us were born, to git us age. Old mistis say, 'Sambo, you aint twenty-one yet.

Hezn't my wife ben with me there many a time, and hevn't both of us prayed an' groaned an' cried in our hearts, not only 'cos we couldn't join in it all ourselves, but 'cos we couldn't send the children either, without their learnin' to hate religion 'fore they fairly know'd what 'twas?

To get learnin'! sez I. I'll get him learnin', sez I, down to the store, Werry well, sez ma. Werry well, sez I, and so 'twas; and I think I done a good thing by him." Mr. Van Boozenberg talked at much greater length of his general intercourse with ma. Mr. Boniface Newt regarded him more and more contemptuously.
