They, knowing him to be a singular man, forebore ever to press him, and awaited his own humor, lest he should weary of the lyric; and when after a day of silence apparently saturnine, he would lift his gentle voice and begin: "If you go to monkey with my Looloo girl, I'll tell you what I'll do: I'll cyarve your heart with my razor, AND I'll shoot you with my pistol, too "
Looloo, fair as a lily, proved that blushes made her prettier still; the Major said finely, "Praise from Sir Hubert"; and Aunt Molly, giving the same truth a sound wholesome turn, observed that Loo needn't get set up, for she'd never be as pretty as Cally, no matter how she improved. Cousin Martha's remark was: "But to go back to what I was saying, Cally.
"You must looloo to me only when I pass on the day of the celebration of your nuptials with the other man." However, the woman promised, the divorce took place, and the lover was soon promoted into a second husband.
All this is done to the sound of rude noisy drums. I have not heard any songs, or seen any other species of music but this drum. There are, however, several drums of different sizes, and producing various noises. They are made of wood and with bullocks' hide. The women looloo as on the coast, and both men and women dance; not exactly as the negroes do, but still somewhat indelicately.
"I thought I saw a purple box in the front window as I drove up," said Carlisle. "Is it a secret who sent them?" "'Bout forty," said Chas, making a fine one-hand catch of a napkin. "You'd hardly call 'em a bunch, Tee Wee more like a nosegay." "Pass this coffee to Cally, son." "Bob Dunn sent 'em, Cally, down at the bookstore," said Looloo, sweetly.
Cally herself was aware of an inner buoyance oddly at variance with the drab Cooney milieu. Recent progress in the great game had more than blotted out all memory of little mishaps at the Beach.... Starting aloft for the napkins, Looloo was adroitly tripped by Tee Wee, and fell back upon him with a little shriek.
Five ......... Looloo. Six ......... Woro. Seven ......... Oronglo. Eight ......... Sie. Nine ......... Conunta. Ten ......... Tang. Eleven ......... Tan ning killin, &c. In the Travels of Francis Moore the reader will find a pretty copious vocabulary of the Mandingo language, which in general is correct.

"Ha," said Kent, "a looloo!" The two men looked into one another's eyes. "Yes," repeated Edwards thoughtfully, "a peach."
At that moment the broken Cooney doorbell rang feebly, and within one minute V. Vivian came walking into the little parlor. Supping at the Cooneys was not usually so interesting as this. When the bell rang, Looloo, springing up from the Major's side in the dining-room, hurriedly pulled shut the folding-doors between.
The children came two years apart, as regular as some kind of biannual publication; Looloo, seventeen, being the youngest, and also the best-looking and the most popular in the family. But then all the Cooneys were good-looking, including the Major, and all were popular in the family.
