Old Dinah saw, going down the path, a tall, brown girl, in a homespun frock, swinging a slat-bonnet in one hand and a splint basket in the other. "Oh, Cicely!" she called. The girl turned and answered in a resonant voice, vibrating with youth and life, "Yes, granny!" "Be sho' and pick a good mess er peas, chile, fer yo' gran'daddy's gwine ter be home ter dinner ter-day."
