Meshach has been edited, and has not come out of that fiery furnace unscathed. Mr. Stabler has not let him come before us in his deerskin hunting-shirt, but has made him presentable by getting him into a black dress-coat, the uniform of perfect respectability and tiresomeness. He has corrected Meshach's style for him!
I don't think Meshach kin be a bad man." "How kin he be good, Jack?" "Why, I have seen him in the woods when he didn't see me, calling up the birds. Danged if they didn't come and git on him!

David Bond studied a moment, knitting his brows until their heavy archings met in a single hoary line. "I take their place," he said at last, with dignity.
