It is recorded that, though the Boones were Quakers, they were of a high mettle and were not infrequently dealt with by the Meeting.
To himself he said he 'fancied' it. And why should not parsons have 'fancies' like other people? Why should they not wear ''oley bits' if they liked? No objection, either moral, legal or religious could surely be raised to such a course of procedure!
"As well as I can, sir, though their clo'es gets uncommon wore an' 'oley, 'igh an' low specially low, sir!" "You provide a roof to shelter them?" "Aye such as it is needs re-thatchin' bad."

The New York Oley Koeks are dough-nuts with currants and raisins in them. Put two pints of rich milk into separate pans. Cut up and melt in one of them a quarter of a pound of butter, warming it slightly; then, when it is melted, stir it about, and set it away to cool.

The Reverend John, meanwhile, seated under his canopy of apple- blossoms, had succeeded in attaching the ''oley bit' to his chain in such a manner that it should not come unduly into notice with the mere action of pulling out his watch. He could not, for the life of him, have explained, had he been asked, the reason why he had determined to thus privately wear it on his own person.
