"I don't know when you went out with the carriage, and when you didn't," said Dan'l; "all I know is as my lawn didn't get swept; and how the doctor expects a garden like this here to be kept tidy without help, I should be glad to know." "Well, you'd better go and grumble at him, and not worry me, and pst! Lookye there."
Here, as they walked, the lads' feet crushed in the moss-covered, rotten wood, and at every step a faint damp odour of mould, mingled with the strong scent of crushed ferns and fungi, rose to their nostrils. "Never mind the nuts," said Fred; "let's get out in the sunshine again. Pst! there he goes."
But suddenly they heard a loud noise, close to them, and on going round the house, they saw a number of English and French sailors, who were hammering at the closed shutters of the taproom with their fists. The two tradesmen immediately made their escape, but a low "Pst!" stopped them; it was Monsieur Tournevau, the fish curer, who had recognized them, and was trying to attract their attention.

The older man leaned toward the younger. "Stove fire?" with a gesture of protest against the inadequate oil blaze. Hillas whispered, "Can't afford it. Coal is $9.00 in Haney, $18.00 here." They sat with heads thrust forward, listening in the intolerable silence. Dan lifted the blanket, hearkened a moment, then "pst!" another bit of iron fell into the pail.
