I promised her at least a half-a-day, though I didn't see how I was to spare it, for I tell Miss Wilcox I just run and run till it does seem as if my feet would drop off; but I thought I must just step in to say, that I, for my part, do admire the Doctor more than ever, and I was telling your mother we mus'n't mind too much what people say.
"Who rowed the boat?" "Some boys two and Johnny, grandma." "Hasn't thy mother told thee not to go on the water?" "She said I mus'n't sail, and I never. I wherried." "Why, Dotty Parlin," said Prudy, "you'll scare me so I'll never get my breath again! You didn't go off on that bay with some boys?" "Yes, I did," replied Dotty, trying to look defiant. "You wouldn't have dared to, Prudy."

"I've kep' the tea-pot hot by the fire, and you must eat a little somethin', for it's long past dinner-time." "Is it?" said Mara. "I had no idea I had slept so long how thoughtful and kind you are!" "I do wish I could only do more for you," said Miss Ruey.

You mus'n't b'lieve all dis-yeh nonsense 'bout insurrectionin'; all fool-nigga talk. W'at we want to be insurrectionin' faw? We de happies' people in de God's worl'!" She gave a start, and cast a furtive glance of alarm behind her. "Yes, we is; you jis' oughteh gimme fawty an' lemme go! Please, gen'lemen! God'll be good to you, you nice, sweet gen'lemen!"
"I don't know just how to explain it, but, some way, after all this that's happened, it don't seem to me as though I'd ought to go, it don't seem to me as though it'd be just right; as though it'd be a-doin' what what Oh!
