And the little darling was awake and held out his arms to me. No, he hasn't cried a bit, and I know all about babies; I've often nursed Mrs Simpkins's daughter's baby when she brings it up on Sundays. They have bread and milk to eat. You take him, Alice, and I'll go and get some bread and milk for him. Alice took the noble brat.
But, of co'se, all the great honors they laid on him the weddin' supper an' dance in the Simpkins's barn, the dec'rations o' the church that embraced so many things he's lectured about an' all that why they was all meant to show fo'th how everybody took pride in him, ez a author o' printed books.
Freydon, you won't know yourself after takin' a bottle or two of Simpkins's Red Marvel. I agree cordially, well assured that in such a case I should not care to know myself.
