But I don't git a minute to call me own; an' I'm ginerally that dead-beat at night that I'm fit for nothink. Mary had some of the children up now and then later on, and taught them a little.
Soom toimes i' t' year theer's a lot doin, yo knaw, sir, even on a bit place like ours, and he ha gitten a good schoolin, he ha. The apologetic incoherence of the little speech was curious. Mr. Ancrum did not exactly know how to take his man. 'I dare say he's useful. But he's not going to be the ordinary labourer, Mr.
