"But byne-by we're mebbee six days to the good o' 'Frisco byne-by they two gits kind o' sassy along o' each t'other, an' they has a heart-to-heart talk and puts it up as how either one o' 'em 'ud stand to win so only the t'other was out o' the game.
We don't use a doctor at our house, we don't beleeve in 'em, hain't no call for 'em but this yer baby's parents mebbee did. So rise up out o' that cheer and get one." James North looked at Miss Robinson and rose, albeit a little in doubt, and hesitating. Miss Robinson saw it. "I shouldn't hev troubled ye, nor ridden three mile to do it, if ther hed been any one else to send.
Brant! And mebbee you'll find out that your chance o' gettin' Mrs. Peyton's consent ain't as safe to gamble on as you reckon it is. And mebbee, what's more to the purpose, if you DID get it, it might not be just the trump card to fetch Susy with! And to wind up, Mr.
We walked on down the street. Suddenly, Mrs. Panel staggered, and might have fallen had I not firmly grasped her arm. "I dunno' what ails me," she muttered. "Did you eat any breakfast this morning?" "I dunno' as I did," she admitted with reluctance. "Did you eat any dinner?" "Mebbee I didn't."
"Yes, the lords. They tole me back ther," she jerked her head in the direction of the village, "that two English lords owned a big cattle- ranch right here; an' I thought, mebbee, that they'd like ter see me." A pathetic accent of doubt quavered upon the personal pronoun. "Ye kin tell 'em," she continued, "that I'm here. Yes, sir, I'm a book-agent, an' my book will interest them sure."
Mebbee it kem from her reading, mebbee it kem from her not knowing other girls, or seeing too much of a queer sort of men; but she got an interest in the bad ones, and thought it was her mission to reform them, reform them by pure kindness, attentive little sisterly ways, and moral example. She first tried her hand on Reddy. When he first kem to us he was well, he was a blazin' ruin!
"Mebbee he's drunk," said Bill audibly; "a drop or two afore breakfast sometimes upsets his kind." "I was saying, Bill," said Mr. Mayfield, becoming utterly limp and weak again under Bill's cold gray eyes, "that I've changed my mind, and shall stop here awhile. My daughter seems already benefited by the change. You can take my traps from the boot and leave them here."

"I'm nothin' to ye; but ye've bin the world an' all ter me. Well I said I'd never go ter my little girl, because I wasn't fit, but I always thought that the Lord in His mercy would bring her ter me. Ye wore the clothes I sent, an' mebbee ye wondered who made 'em. 'Twas the happiness o' my life sewing on 'em, an' ter think you was wearin' them. I've worked awful hard, but I kin take it easy now.
"You keep dat? lill' while? for me? Yass; till I mek out how I goin' to spend her." "Manouvrier, may I make one condition?" "Yass." "It is that you will never play the lottery again." "Ah! Yass, I play her ag'in! You want know whan ole Pastropbon play her ag'in? One doze fine mawning mebbee dat sun going rise hisself in de wes'. Well: when ole Pastropbon see dat, he play dat lott'ree ag'in.
