Nothin's the matter with ME; but there's somethin' the matter with other folks, I tell you that!
There's a bran-new one, and there's the other." "I don't like bran-new nothin's, Mr. Butterfield. I ain't a Radical, I ain't. Why, I've seed in my time an election last a week, and beer a-runnin' down the gutters. It was the only chance a poor man 'ad. Wot sort of a chance 'as he got now?
