Me makee heap trouble for boss." Later, upon the same day, we learned from a neighbour that the Coon Dogs had tarred and feathered one poor wretch; another had been stripped and whipped; a third was found half-strangled by his own queue; the market-gardens near San Lorenzo, miracles of industry, had been ravaged and destroyed. Before taking leave our neighbour mentioned the sign.
"Yes," said Matilda, reproachingly, "you went away and left me very willingly, though it was to wait on a person you never saw before." "Ah, Missy! you no lovee me, and poor white woman lovee me much. You makee beer spit in my face she givee me tea-gruel out of her own cup. You callee me black beetle she callee me good girly, good nursy, good every ting."
"What did the man do then!" "Him jlump. Me hit piecee man with flying pan; then me run. Him shoot blam, blam! and run away. Hab hit thumb. Hab makee me stop, and run away. Why for big piecee man makee so fashion?" "We do not know why, Ping. That is what we are trying to find out," answered Grace Harlowe. "Can you tell us how the man looked!" The Chinaman shook his head.
The venerable stranger from distant shores said a good deal to the other in what I suppose was the language used in China. It all sounded like "hung" and "li" and "chi," and then the other turned to us and said "Nicee lilly girlee, same piecee flowelee, you takee my head to walkee on. This is alle samee my father first chop ancestor. Dirty white devils makee him hurt.
Suppose he has written that it is here people meet together?" "Makee chit tell my name? Muchee hard luck! Number one police chop." "You say Fo-Hi not buying you bread and cheese. Perhaps it is Fo-Hi that save you from hanging!" Ah-Fang-Fu hugged himself. "Yak pozee!" Chunda Lal raised his finger. "Be very careful, Ah-Fang-Fu!" "Allee time velly careful."
"My makee holee thliss morn'," he said gladly. "Makee Napoleon more happy." Sincerity is not a matter of broken English or a drink of rum; the poor old grandfather of the Little Corporal's namesake believed earnestly that Napoleon would improve by his sacramental offering. He, like most Marquesans, took the white man's religion with little understanding.
"He talkee my, wanchee cook makee one piecee burfday-cake." He set the cake down in front of Prudence as he spoke. "Welly good, Ah Kew, Master b'long quitey righty," said Hugh approvingly. "Cook makee jolly-good cakee, me eat jolly-good cakee. Cook pleased, me pleased, cakee pleased, all jolly-welly pleased."
Mr Hellick make laugh. Dog not got tow-chang." "No," I said, trying very hard to get the pot off, "but dogs have got tails." "Yes, got tails. Don't tellee, make no good. Didn't hurt Ching." "But it's an insult to you," I said. "Any one would think they were a pack of boys." "Yes, jolly sailor boy. You no makee come off?" "No," I said.
At this I saw the door of the dining saloon pushed open, and John himself thrust out his hand. "All litee," said he, merely greeting me casually. "You come?" "Yes," said I, with equal sang-froid. "You makee quick jump now, John, s'pose I come in." "All litee," said he once more. I saw now that he stood there, a book and a bundle in his arm. Perhaps he had been reading to pass the time!
Savvy?" "All light. You givee me gun, I shootee wolf plenty. Makee go 'ki-yi' and lun belly fast." Song went away with a grin on his face like a crack in a piece of stale cheese. "Stella, you've solved it. I believe whoever put that message there heard our conversation, and at least they'll hate us a bit worse than before, if that is possible." "Let them bark, the wolves.
