Pascoe and his wife lay on mats at their feet, and a native Toby Philpot, with his ruddy cheek and jug of ale, belonging to the chief, separated them from the goats. The remainder of the suite of the travellers had nowhere whatever to sleep. The walls of their apartment were ornamented with strings of dry, rattling, human bones, written charms, or fetishes, sheep skins, and bows and arrows.
Bundy was badly beaten, and then Easton suggested that it was time to think of going home. This proposal slightly modified met with general approval, the modification being suggested by Philpot, who insisted on standing one final round of drinks before they went. While they were pouring this down their throats, Crass took a penny from his waistcoat pocket and put it in the slot of the polyphone.
It is enough to say, of my warm-hearted little play fellows, that they lived on Philpot street, very near Durgin & Bailey's shipyard. Although slavery was a delicate subject, and very cautiously talked about among grown up people in Maryland, I frequently talked about it and that very freely with the white boys.
'Let's 'oot 'im, said Harlow, and the suggestion was at once acted upon; howls, groans and catcalls filled the air, mingled with cries of 'Fraud! 'Imposter! 'Give us our money back! 'Let's wreck the 'all! and so on. 'Come on 'ere, cried Philpot, putting his hand on Owen's shoulder. 'Prove that money is the cause of poverty.
This question of having tea or cocoa for tea became a cause of much uproarious merriment on the part of the children, who asked each other repeatedly which they liked best, 'tea tea? or 'cocoa tea? They thought it so funny that they said it over and over again, screaming with laughter all the while, until Tommy got a piece of cake stuck in his throat and became nearly black in the face, and then Philpot had to turn him upside down and punch him in the back to save him from choking to death.
To me the American slave trade is a terrible reality. When a child, my soul was often pierced with a sense of its horrors. I lived on Philpot street, Fell's Point, Baltimore, and have watched from the wharves the slave ships in the basin, anchored from the shore, with their cargoes of human flesh, waiting for favorable winds to waft them down the Chesapeake.
'Before retiring to rest: a glass of warm milk. 'During the night: a glass of milk with a biscuit or bread and butter should be placed by the bedside and be eaten if the patient awakes. Whilst Owen was reading this book, Crass, Harlow, Philpot and Easton were talking together on the other side of the street, and presently Crass caught sight of him.
As they worked, the thorns of the rose trees caught and tore their clothing and lacerated the flesh of their half-frozen hands. Owen and Easton were working on ladders doing the windows immediately above Philpot and Harlow, Sawkins, on another ladder, was painting one of the gables, and the other men were working at different parts of the outside of the house.
The next morning Philpot brought the list to the yard and Crass and Slyme put their names down for a shilling each, and Sawkins for threepence, it being arranged that the money was to be paid on payday Christmas Eve. In the meantime, Philpot was to see as many as he could of those who were in work, at other firms and get as many subscriptions as possible.
It would be no use, we should catch it all the worse afterwards; besides, bad as she was, the Henniker was a woman, and it would be cowardly to thrash her. "Tie up her hands and feet and gag her," suggested Philpot. Wouldn't do again. She'd get Ladislaw to help her out. "Tie up Ladislaw and Hashford too." We weren't numerous or strong enough to do it. "Let's all bolt," suggested Flanagan.
