"Partridges!" cries Dawson, from within. "Have 'em, Kit, for your bread and cheese is mighty every-day fare." "Let me see 'em, good woman," says I. "Yes, sir," answers she, meekly, putting her pillow-slip in my hand, which perplexed me vastly by its weight and bulk. "They seem to be pretty big birds by the feel of 'em," says I.

"Pillow-slip," he said, "knife broken, onyx clock wouldn't think so much of the clock if he hadn't been so damnably anxious to hide the key, the discrepancy in time as revealed by the trial yes, it is as clear as a bell.

When you're asked to a party at Government House at Apia you'll notice that all the ladies are given a pillow-slip to put their their lower extremities in."
There was a busy time for a few minutes as the girls dressed Amelia in an old pillow-slip with eye-holes burned in it, and placed in her hand the staff of a broom, over the brush-end of which was drawn another bag, on which, in charcoal, Grace Mason deftly drew a very wise looking owl in outline. Thus arrayed, Amelia was to lead the procession and be Mistress of Ceremonies.
