Come, Butterface, haven't you got a suggestion to make." The negro shook his woolly head. "No," he said, "I's 'orrible stoopid. Nebber could get nuffin' to come out o' my brain sep w'en it's knocked out by accident. You's hard to please, massa. S'pose you mix de two, dis'pintment an' content, an' call 'im Half-an'-half Island."
"Mr Sawbridge mind him own business," replied Mesty, "we nebber take all dis trubble to ply to windward for noting." "But, Mesty, we must obey orders." "Yes, sar, when he have him thumb upon you; but now, must do what tink most proper. By de powers, he catch me 'fore I go back." "But we shall lose the ship." "Find her again, by-and-bye, Massa Easy." "But they will think that we are lost."
He put his hand before one of my ear, and he put his mout' to tudder. Keep whisper, whisper, day and night, nebber stop whisper. Tell me to kill pale- face, wherever I find him. Bess to kill him. If didn't kill pale- face, pale-face kill Injin. No help for it. Kill ole man, kill young man; kill squaws, pappoose and all. Smash eggs and break up 'e nest.
Her eyes followed him as he stepped through the door into the darkness; then her head dropped into the support of her hands. There was silence except for the crackling of the fire, until Neb moved uneasily. At the sound the girl looked up, seeing clearly the good-natured face of the negro. "Yo' don't nebber need cry, Missus," he said soberly, "so long as Massa Jack done 'greed to look after yo'."
"How often have I told you that the Lord views with displeasure anything so violent and improper as your outcries?" "Can't help him, dominie nebber can help him, when he take me sudden. See, masser, dere come Ole Nick!" There was Nick, sure enough.
De Captain he nebber eat no breakfast; he say et ain't good fer his libber yaw; yaw! but de mates dey both bin down." "What time is it?" "Most ten, sah." "I did sleep, that 's a fact, Louis. However, I 'll try and do full justice to anything you got," and I seated myself at the table. "Has Mrs. Henley breakfasted yet?" "Who, sah?" "The lady you have on board."
An' de time she made de chickens drunk often egg- nog? Nebber wus nobody in de world lak dat chile, up to ever mischievousness dat ever wuz concocted, but jus' so sweet an' coaxin' dat de Cunnel nebber knowed how to punish her." The stranger took out a meerschaum pipe, started to light a match, evidently forgot his intention, and looked absently ahead into the darkness.
Comb my ha'r? Nebber did dat in my life." "Well, you've got to do it now every mornin', and be spry about it, too. Come, don't move around as if sawed out o' basswood. This ain't nigger-quarters. Git some springs in your feet." And he emphasized his injunctions with a vigorous push.
If it hadn't been for him I'd sorter felt as if I'd killed Miss Annie by leavin' dat doggoned ladder so straight up, and I nebber could hab gone out in de dark agin all my life." "Why, you old black fool," said Hunting, irritably, "don't you know I'm going to marry Miss Annie? You'd better keep on the right side of me." "Which is de right side?"
"But suah's you lib I nebber did leab dis yeah seat," insisted Dinah, which was very true. But how could she watch those boys and keep her face so close to the window?
