"Keepin the niggers ez slaves ain't the question at all. We folks air ez fur from bein' Abolitionists ez ennybody. Hit's a battle now with a lot uv 'ristocrats who'd take our rights away." "I don't quite understand your position," said Harry. "Hit's bekase ye don't understand the country. The people down heah air divided into three classes.
Mare, yo' speech is all right 'nough, but it don't suit we uns ernough ter give up ther guns. We went back on our colored frends ter giv' yo' 'ristocrats ther gov'ment, and we uns'll combine wi' ther colored men an' take hit from yer, see?" Teck Pervis turned and faced the men who stood like a wall at his back. "Gentermen, go home an' keep yer guns an' yer powder dry, for yo'll need 'em!
What does, she owe to you? asked the Colonel, turning on the speaker with a proud and angry look. 'More, a darned sight than she'll pay, if ye cursed 'ristocrats run her to h as ye'r doing.

"I s'pose you'll like England with its 'ristocrats and kings so well that you won't come back to these ordinary United States." Quincy knew that Mr. Strout wished he would stay in England, so he replied, "Oh, no. I'm coming back sure. I know a little about weighing groceries and I've decided to come back and go into business." "What good will your book larnin' do you then?"
