But you have not observed things with equal accuracy. Do you know when a gun is past service?" "No, sir; I never was a poacher, no-how. Squire Darling, that is to say, Sir Charles Darling now, according to a chap on board, he was always so good upon his land that nobody durst go a-poaching." "I mean a cannon, Dan.
