In a surprisingly short time he came back with a stout pair of boots and some warm stockings, and a half-worn cloth overcoat and cap. "Shure, and ye won't mind their coming from the second-hand shop with the three yallow balls put up for ornyment. Me uncle lives there and he's very obligin'." Dick flushed with a mixture of gratitude and shrinking.
"Or obligin' YOU. To tell you the truth, and it don't do no harm to say it now, if you hadn't been promised, I was a-goin' to ast you myself! You took notice I gave you an inwitation there last week to go buggy-ridin' with me. That was leadin' up to it.
She is very obligin', and would always curchy and smile, and say "Yes'm" whenever I asked her to do any thing. She always would, and always will, I s'pose, do jest what you tell her to, as near as she can; and she is thought a good deal of. Wall, she has liked Ury for some time that has been plain to see: she thought her eyes of him, and he of her.
But just then the angry voice of the East Orange plumber reached him: "Just imagine Petch turnin' up; him, of all men in the world! An' of course you talked nicey-nicey, an' he's such an obligin' feller that he beats it after the car! Petch, indeed!" There was a snort of jealous fury. Polly's voice was raised in protest.

Costrell was a-payin another o' them things, an summat as was said come to my ears an come to Watson's. An me and Watson 'ave been makin inquiries an Mr. Dawson wor obligin enough to make me a small loan, 'ee wor. Now I've got just one question to ask o' John Borroful. He put his hand into his waistcoat-pocket, and drew out a silver coin. 'Is that yourn, John? John fell upon it with a cry.
Mary's Lunnon father, which they'd put clean out o' their minds, arrived down from Lunnon with the law on his side, sayin' he'd take his daughter back to Lunnon, after all. I was working for Mus' Dockett at Pounds Farm that summer, but I was obligin' Jim that evenin' muckin' out his pig-pen. I seed a stranger come traipsin' over the bridge agin' Wickenden's door-stones.
For folks mostly loikes them that will take pains for 'em; and your father was always obligin'. And you are, too, Pat, but kape on at it. Folks ain't a-goin' to buy nothin', if they can help it, from a clerk that ain't obligin'. Sellin' goods is pretty much loike doin' housework, you'll foind, only it's different."
When Bill and Dick returned to the office after "obligin' Ame," they stepped with one accord to the counter and looked at the register. "Why, darn it," exclaimed Bill, "he didn't sign his name, after all." "No," said Dick, "but I c'n give a putty near guess who he is, all the same." "Some drummer?" suggested Bill. "Naw," said Richard scornfully. "What 'd a drummer be doin' here this time o' year?
Now, all you have to do is to sell out your Erie shares, and invest in our stock, and I'll insure you a fortune in three years. How many shares did you say you had?" "I didn't say, that I remember," said Dick. "Your offer is very kind and obligin', and as soon as I get time I'll see about it." "I hope you will," said the stranger. "Permit me to give you my card.

"You're a good customer, Mr. Holiday," the genial florist was saying. "I'm tickled to be obligin' ye and mesilf at the same time. Anything in the flower line, to-day, Mr. Holiday? Some roses now or violets? Got some Jim dandies just in. Beauties, I'm tellin' you.
