Well, we'll send help quick as the Lord'll let us. By the Almighty!" he added, in a sudden burst, "you've got more spunk than I have yes, or anybody I ever come across. I'll say that for you, if you are a parson. Give way, fellers." The oars dipped, bent, and the dory moved off. The sound of the creaking thole pins shot a chill through Ellery's veins.
"Come in, sirs," he said, as they approached his door, "and tak' a pairt in our faimily worship; and sae the day'll gang oot wi' prayer, as it cam in wi' prayer. And the Lord'll maybe hae mercy upo' 's, and no destroy the place, shops an' a', for the sins o' the inhaibitants them 'at sees, for them 'at 's blin'."
Now, go an' git ready ez quick ez the Lord'll let ye." As she heard the mare's hoofs in front of the door, Rachel came out with a "slat-sun-bonnet" on her head, and a long, black calico riding-skirt over her linsey dress. Fortner gave her attire an approving nod. Aunt Debby followed her with a bottle. "This is the medicine ye've bin ter git from Dr.
"Well, it's natur' to want to live," said Miss Roxy. "Life is sweet, and in a gen'l way we was made to live. Don't worry; the Lord'll bring you right when His time comes. Folks isn't always supported jest when they want to be, nor as they want to be; but yet they're supported fust and last.

I guess the Lord'll know me by any name; I only hope so." "But what are the Indians doing?" asked one of the men. "Doin'? What ain't they a-doin'! They're gittin' down to bizness mighty lively; that's what they're a-doin'." "In what way?" "Wall, they're tryin' to decide whether it's best to pinch only the ones who burnt their store, or to hand out a bunch to the whole gang.

An' yit, with ole Nick a-tuggin' at me, I was a Christun 'nuff to thank the Lord that they was a tender place in that pore miserbul creetur's soul-case.
