"We'd saved, both of us, an' we'd planned a honeymoon trip. We was comin' ter Boston. They didn't have any 'lectric-cars then nor any steam-cars only half-way. But we was comin' an' we was plannin' on Bunker Hill an' Faneuil Hall, an' I don't know what all." The little lady paused for breath and Harding stirred uneasily in his chair. Livingstone did not move.
"Guess Eph cal'lates ter fish with two lines in each hand and 'nother in his teeth," said Mr. Wing. "He's plannin' out for a great lay o' fish." The spring came slowly on, and the first boat that went out that season was Eph's. That day was one of unmixed delight to him. What a sense of absolute freedom, when he was fairly out beyond the lightship, with the fresh swiftness of the wind in his face!
I asked in the same guarded tones. "I done got somefin' to tell you. While I ketchin' a lil' bit of sleep 'longside that white trash Mo'ton's place, I done heah dey all plannin' to git out warrant for to arres' Massa Fairfax and Massa Pine and Massa Ma'sh for a-killin' dem men las' week; and I heah dem say dey gwine fer to gib dem trial, and if dey fight dey gwine done shoot 'em."
I ain't done nothin'. She's so darned scared some other woman'll get my money that you see, a month or so ago I I well, she thought I done somethin', or was plannin' to do somethin' that Keziah Coffin never told you anything about me, did she?" "No, indeed. What could Mrs. Coffin tell me about you?" "All right. Nothin', nothin'. Only if she did, tain't so.
"Are ye aimin' to answer them voiceless questions?" Pat inquired. Silence. "Plannin' to tear down Kentwood and enforce them factory laws?" demanded Wes' Norton. Still no answer. "I'm jest callin' yer attention to the fact that this election is gittin' nearer every day." "What am I to do with her? I can't afford to show we're afraid of her." "Huh." "I can't bribe her to stop."
That's why I've got you together. You've got to wait. And until I give the word, you've got to keep your eyes on the deck an' run every time one of the mates of White Henshaw damn his heart! gives the word. Why? Because one wrong word one queer look will tip off the skipper that something's wrong, and once he gets suspicious, you can lay to it that he'll find out what we're plannin'. I know!"
Mebbe it dies, an' everything's all wasted. There ain't anything to tie to. It's like lookin' in a glass all the while. It's seemin', it ain't bein'. We ain't certain o' nothin' but our breath, an' when that goes, what hev you got? What's the use o' plannin' Thanksgivin' for anybody?" "Well, if you're hungry, it's kind o' nice to get fed up," said Calliope, crisply.
"Well," says I, "tell him I need those no, better ask him to step in here a minute." Honest, I wa'n't plannin' to rub it in, either. Course, I'd done a good deal of trottin' for Piddie, and a lot of it wa'n't for anything else than to let him show his authority; but I didn't hold any grudge. I'd squared the account in my own way.
"I presume likely you didn't throw many," he observed. "That would be expensive fun." "It would," was the prompt reply. "Cigars cost money." They jogged on for a few minutes in silence. Then said Captain Obed: "Well, John, what are you plannin' to do first? After we get into port, I mean." "I scarcely know. Look about, perhaps. Possibly try out a boarding-house and hunt for a prospective office.
'Cause, well, I don't ever have t' stay in it if I don't want t'. I mean, I can be wherever I want t' be. And and I'm with Aladdin most o' the time, 'r King Arthur. And this next day 'r so, I'm plannin' t' spend on Treasure Island." All this was intended to make them feel more cheerful.
