She says fun'rals is 'bout the only recreation she has, 'n' she doos git a heap o' satisfaction out of 'em, 'n' no mistake. She'll go early, afore any o' the comp'ny assembles.
Your mother and father used to live here, you know, years ago. In this same house." "Yes, I know we did. I think I was born here," said Charles Rideout, Junior.

"Very well," I said, "but don't keep putting me out I've got more names in my mind to tell you. Maidment, Marchmont, Velvin, Burpitt, Winzur, Rideout, Cullurne." Of these she only knew one Rideout.
"Hello, Dad!" said young Rideout, easily and cheerfully, "I came to bring you home!" "This is MY boy, Mrs. Warriner," said his father; "you see he's turned the tables, and is looking after me!
