The girl lifted the skillet from the stove, and let the flame flare up to hide her blushes. "He wouldn't be settin' 'round," she asserted indignantly, jabbing the fire with her fork. "He'd be up an' comin', you c'n bet on that." "What's Idy gettin' off now?" drawled Mrs. Starkweather from the other room. "Gettin' off her base," answered Parker jocosely.
A skillet was brought from Archie's house, together with some dishes and a coffee-pot, and Dan Sullivan brought some more dishes, and six eggs from his nests under the barn.

She threw a fresh handful of twigs and dried ferns to the sleeping ashes of the brazier, set a copper skillet deep into the answering flame, and began dropping dried bits of herbs into the simmering water.
He was buying the land from the government and could take his time to pay for it. He wanted to start for Indiana at once, before the weather got any colder. It did not take long to get ready.

One fellow picks up the skillet, holds it awhile, mentally determining how much it weighs, and what will be the weight of it after carrying it five miles, and reluctantly, with a half-ashamed, sly look, drops it and takes his place in ranks. Another having added to his store of blankets too freely, now has to decide which of the two or three he will leave.
Freshett had cooked all day, and washed dishes until the last skillet was in place, she had done as much as any neighbour ought to do, and the other things she went on and did were a rebuke to us. I felt sore, weepy, and tired out.
