Some neow 's all'as dreadful oneasy when they gits to shinglin'; wants to drive the last shingle deown 'fore the first one's weather-shaped.

"Sartin! sartin!" said he, delighted; "we're jest like twin-brothers. But neow don't you werry one mite. She 's done a good werk an' she 's returnin' to Natur's God.

"Miss Ady didn't say I could help ye neow, did she?" said Micah, scratching his head. "Certainly. Why did she bring me here?"
