In short, it was a summons for Tom to appear before the court at Danville on a certain day in the following week, and I made out that a Mr. Neville Colfax was the plaintiff in the matter, and that the suit had to do with land. "Neville Colfax!" I exclaimed, "that's the man for whom Mr. Potts was agent." "Ay, ay," said Tom, and sat him down on the meal-bags. "Drat the varmint, he kin hev the land."
But didn't he enjoy himself, bumping against his fellow men and swinging me round like a mop. On these occasions I find that I'm not as young as I was, nor as light of foot. In ten years more we shall be meal-bags, sister; so be resigned. And Mrs Jo subsided into a corner, much dishevelled by her benevolent exertions.
"When you've quite finished with my feet," said Daphne in a withering tone. "Sorry, dearest. I thought it was a bag of meal," said her husband. "My thoughts run on food just now, you see." Here he gave a yell of agony. "Get off!" he screamed. "You're on my hand." "That's more like it," said Jonah. "That ought to carry." "Meal-bags don't hurt, do they?" said Daphne coolly.
But now tell me, please, what are all these things? Meal-bags?" "Do you really want to know?" "Of course I do. Now that I've got over my fright about your strangling with the asthma those shears did wheeze so! my curiosity is all alive again." "I've a cousin down in North Carolina teaching the little freedmen." "And she's to have all these sacks to tie the naughty ones up in? What a bright idea!
