I am exceedingly sorry that we brought you over from America and then are compelled to terminate your engagement so soon, but in your present condition " Mr. Robertson flung out his hands with an eloquent gesture. "Well, look here; I'll give up my dance that does shake me a bit, I'll grant; but you must let me sing the new song you really must; I'm a nailer at it and I'll wrap up!
Newman ought to be doing a slow burn and goldbricking all he dares; instead of which he's happy as a clam and working like a nailer ... and I wouldn't trust Vincent Lopresto or Ferdinand Blaine as far as I can throw a brick chimney by its smoke. This whole situation stinks. There's going to be shooting for sure." "But they couldn't do anything without you two!" Bernice exclaimed.
The letter stated that ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY half-dimes had already come in, from children all over the country, to pay the schoolmaster for teaching the little English nailer to read in the Testament, and to write a legible hand. Nor was this all.
Kelson said, as, late in the afternoon, he and Gifford walked towards the town together. Henshaw had left Wynford Place half an hour previously, having kept to the end his attitude of resentful incredulity. "A nailer," Gifford answered shortly. "Yes," Kelson agreed.

They licked his hands; they soiled him with their reaching paws, the while their cries of welcome testified to their delight.

"He's worked like a nailer, ain't he?" There were tears in his eyes when he took my hand in his rough palm and squeezed it and said: "Sometimes I wish ye was little ag'in so I could take ye up in my arms an' kiss ye just as I used to.
All the morning Jack had paddled bow, and worked like a nailer, so the other two lifted the canoe to their shoulders, scrambling up the steep, rocky shores, and leaving Jack to bear the lighter burdens of blankets, tin kettles and one gold-sack.
At the time I first threw out the proposition in regard to the education of the little Nailer, I hardly believed that they could so abolish space and dry up the ocean intervening between them and such a young sufferer, as they have done.
I began to fear that they were gone, and my imagination ran rapidly over a hundred casualties and changes which might have come upon them. The same gate was open that invited me to enter last summer; and as I passed through it, I met a woman who said the nailer was at dinner in the family apartment of the building.
"Tears all gone, Ross, tragedy played out, and the little woman who keeps house for you is herself again, and has been as busy as a nailer. Are nailers busier than other men, I wonder? All your boxes came. Such bliss as it was to us poor women to feast our eyes upon all that heritage of linen and silver, and china and glass!
