"It's right-down wonderful how a chap gets to understand these fellows' lingo after he's listened to it a bit," he announced to Ann. "I wouldn't have believed it of myself that I could see into it as quick as I have. I couldn't say as I understand everything they say just when they're saying it; but I understand it right enough when I've had time to translate like.

She suddenly went up to Jasper and took his big hand. 'I was trusted by a lady, whose name I mustn't mention, with another bit of news, Jasper, boy and, oh! it's sore it makes my heart.

"Nothin' much, I reckon," the latter answered, in the most matter-of-fact way, "only I thought you might like to know it, Mark bein' a neighbor, like, and a right-down smart young fellow." "Well, I am glad of it," said Sally, with sudden candor, "he's Martha's cousin." "Martha's cousin, and I shouldn't wonder if he'd be something more to her, some day." "No, indeed!
"I was very fond of him," she added, and her kind gravity was quite unshaded by any embarrassment. "I was right-down fond of him."

She stared at Martha Deane, without seeming to see her, and muttered from time to time such fragmentary phrases as, "If I was right-down sure," or, "It'd only be another weepon tried and throwed away, at the wust." "What are you thinking of, Betsy?"
There was a moment's horrified silence. "So he wor!" said one man, emphatically "A right-down reg'lar road-hog!" "Then," proceeded the farmer, carefully studying the paper again "Tom, 'avin' done all his best an' worst in this world, gives himself up to the police, but just 'afore goin' off, asks if he may kiss his dead baby, " A long pause here ensued.
