Another and another day went by; then there was a report got around that praps he was murdered. You bet it made a big stir! Everybody's tongue was clacking away after that.

"Oh, he's thirty-five," said Sam, in rather a disappointed tone. "And looks it," said cook. "Well, I wish he'd go abroad again to his nasty grave-digging in the sands, and then praps master would have decent people to dine with him. Oh! There's the front bell." Cook dived down into the lower regions, and Sam opened the folding inner doors to go and answer the street door bell, frowning the while.
"Bootiful, James, bootiful," I said, as I went on with my work. "You might almost say as spring was here at last, like." "Cross your fingers quickly, James, and touch wood. Look here, I'll be out in a minute and give you some orders, but I'm very busy just now." "Thought praps you'd like to know there's eleven crocuses in the front garden."

"Praps," Tony said thoughtfully, "there was some auntie's kisses in that hold ... just a few...." "I'm sure there were," said a new voice, and Peter appeared on the verandah. The children greeted him with effusion, and when he sat down Tony sat on his knee. He was never assailed by fears lest Peter should want to kiss him. Peter was not that sort. "Sing nunner song," little Fay commanded.

It was that distinguished arastycrat who was now smokin and laffin in our room.
The little Lomaxes were dancing with delight. Only Max was a little quiet. Teddie Gowan did everything a little better than he, Max, could do; it would be insupportable if Teddie were able soon to brag that he whooped louder than Max. "Praps mine will get worser again," he said hopefully. "See here," said Kate, "I must go back before much longer.
I got an inwention as bright as bran new pewter button. I'll shave de head of a tief close and smooth. Dat will keep his head warm in de sun, and cool at night; do him good. He can't go courtin' den, when he ab 'no wool whar de wool ought to grow, and spile his 'frolicken, and all de niggaroons make game ob him. It do more good praps to tickle fancy ob niggars dan to tickle dere hide.
