You bought the thing and the matter is settled, and you've no right.... I can't give you a sum like that in the night, anyhow. Where am I to get a sum like that?" "You always have money.

"The young black rascal! If he hasn't gone and got a sheep's-head!" "A sheep's-head?" They were both staring at the old punt, where Dick Lee was apparently enjoying the most extraordinary good fortune. "Yes, that's it. That's why he beats us so badly. They're a sight better'n clams, only you can't always get one. I wonder where he picked up that one." "But how he does pull 'em in!"

Harris was the first to step to land; some ten of the party followed him.

Settlers flocked across from Ayr, from Troon, from Ardrossan, and other Scots ports lying handy. A smart, attractive town has sprung up, starting with a square a hundred yards across.
She hunted round in my work basket and found some nightcaps I'd begun and would finish 'em, put more work on 'em than I should, for I slight my every day sheep's-head nightcaps. But she trimmed 'em and cat-stitched 'em, till they wuz beautiful to look upon. She wuz always very sweet and gentle in her ways.
The gentleman ordered sheep's-head and trotters for dinner, and when he found he could not have that he said "Gammon and spinach!" But there was not any spinach in the village, so he had to fall back on eggs and bacon. Mrs. Beale cooked it, and when he had fallen back on it she washed up and went home. And we were left.
