Let him be." "But think how he used me the other night when I was trying to find out about that man in the woods! I don't like him." "Well, we can't like everybody in this world," said Bolderwood, philosophically. "We gotter take folks as we find 'em that's my motter. You let the Injin stay.
I takes my man on his boat, in the very middle of his laces and his brandy and his silk I takes him, sir, in the very act of illegality, red-handed, so to speak, and then, if he shows fight, or if he runs away, then I shoots, sir, and then if I hits, why it's a good job too but none of this promiscuous work for Augustus Hobson. Slow and sure, that's my motter."
'Live and let live, 'as always been my motter, and a very good one too." She said all this very slowly, with a good many significant pauses. Maggie, however, felt nothing but happiness at the prospect of getting her way. She had gone far beyond all personal sensations of shame or fear or hesitation. "Would you show me the room, please?" she asked.
"Piper's made a clean breast o' the matter to me, and I do think as what it's common justice to admit that my 'usband's evidence at that inquest was worth more than twenty-five pound to you. It wasn't what Piper said; it was what 'e didn't say that mattered, Mrs. Crofton. It's been on 'is mind awful I'll take my Bible oath on that. But 'live and let live, that's my motter.
"Well," returned Henry, smiling too, "let the other fellow take the chances that's dad's motter." "Yes. And the 'chancey' fellow skims the cream of things every time. No, sir!" declared the young fellow, "I'm going to be among the cream-skimmers, or I won't be a farmer at all." So the plow was put into the bottom-land Wednesday and put in deep.
One of the Star rooters got kinder mad at me making a few remarks during the game, and when the mix-up starts I'm laying for him. But he seen me comin' and I couldn't dodge the brick he had. It's all right to pipe off about fighting square and fair, but that guy wasn't lettin' his brick go to waste till he could think up a motter. Not for him.
Make 'ay while the sun shines was my motter, and I says to meself there was no reason why this war should make everyone un'appy. As for lookin' at the grocery business as a trust from God, like you said, I never dremp of such a thing, although I've bin to Chapel regular for ten years.
As he frequently remarked when for purposes of business he wished to air his Biblical knowledge, "I jest takes the Scripter fur my motter an' foller that ol' passage where it says, 'Make hay while the sun shines, fur the night cometh when no man kin work." It is related that one of Mr. Buford's customers was an old plantation exhorter.
'E's gettin' this every day, and still smiles and sticks it. Yer can't git me to say stop it. Carry on is my motter till the Hun is slugged out of existence." This rough, humble Cockney woman displayed the same spirit that was being shown by the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps in France.
No blanky hanky-panky this time that's their motter." The young man went alone. At Arunvale the station-master beckoned him into the office. "It's right, sir," he said keenly. "Chukkers and Ikey come down this morning. Two-thirty's the time accordin' to my information. I've got a trap waitin' for you outside. Ginger Harris'll drive you. He was a lad at Putnam's one time o' day.
