"I'd 'oped I'd growed out of it, mates," he ses, at last, "but drink always takes me like that. I can't keep a pal." "You surprise me," ses Ginger, sarcastic-like. "Don't talk like that, Ginger," ses Bill, 'arf crying. "It ain't my fault; it's my weakness. Wot did I do it for?" "I don't know," ses Ginger, "but you won't get the chance of doing it agin, I'll tell you that much."
He paused a moment. "I think it was the day after the fight, that very night, to be hexact, sir." "I see. The night after the fight. He spent the evening out and when he came home, was he intoxicated?" "Not then, no, sir. But 'e'd been drinkin', just mildly lit in a manner o' speakin' sir, not drunk, but gay and kind o' sarcastic-like; not like Master Jerry 'imself, sir."
And with that the crowd below parted, and John a Hall came roaring through it like a bull. "Where's the Major? Major Dyngwall! Who's seen Major Dyngwall?" "Ay, we're all asking that?" called out some person, sarcastic-like: and all began to laugh and to boo. But John a Hall caught at the rail and swung himself up the steps. "You thundering fools!" he bellowed. "Is it foul play that tickles you?
"I should think not, sir," says the old man, very sarcastic-like. "But I cannot sit here patiently and see you behave in so rude a way to those four ladies who honour you by being your tenants." "Say I feel greatly surprised that the rent was not sent over yesterday, my dear," says Sir John, without taking any notice of his son. "Yes, uncle," says Miss Virginia.
"But it ain't dead," says I. "Oh, yes; it's so rotten it must surely be dead," says he in the nastiest way I ever heard. He's a fearful old man, Mr. Rigby. He made a mean remark about that Mrs. David Cable." "What did he say?" quickly demanded Bobby. "He said he'd been reading in the papers about how she was breaking into society. "She's joined the Episcopal church," says he, sarcastic-like.
"I'd 'oped I'd growed out of it, mates," he ses, at last, "but drink always takes me like that. I can't keep a pal." "You surprise me," ses Ginger, sarcastic-like. "Don't talk like that, Ginger," ses Bill, 'arf crying. "It ain't my fault; it's my weakness. Wot did I do it for?" "I don't know," ses Ginger, "but you won't get the chance of doing it agin, I'll tell you that much."
Some of my friends are coming to tea this afternoon, and you'll do very nicely made up into sandwiches." Wasn't that a perfectly dreadful way to talk about our Uncle Wiggily? Well, I guess yes! "Now you're here, make yourself at home," went on the owl, sarcastic-like, as he locked the front door and put the key in his pocket. "Did you see the sign?" "Yes," said Uncle Wiggily, "I did.
Then I laughed; I don't know that I ever laughed so much in my life, and at last I had to sit down on the bricks to go on laughing more comfortably, until the missus came and arst me, sarcastic-like, if I'd got the high-strikes, and if she'd better get a bucket of water to throw over me. "I says, 'No, I don't want no water.
"He kind o' got control of himself after a while, though, and began to question me sarcastic-like. First, he wanted to know where the nigger was now, and what woodpile he was in. I told him I didn't know anything about the rascal, except that he'd promised to give me five hundred dollars if I'd let him off and on condition I was never to tell his employer of what had passed between us.
