"'Ear 'ear!" said Richards, suddenly seizing his cup; "let us drink their 'ealth, an' the 'ealth of all their comrades, for this is the last night of the year, an' by all accounts they won't likely be spendin' it in the midst o' such comforts an' blessin's as we does. Come, lasses, drink it merrily, fill yer glasses, let the teapot circle round."
Bangs, but have you been spendin' this lovely forenoon in the graveyard?" "Eh? Oh, yes, yes. In the old cemetery over ah yonder." "Humph!... Well, I hope you had a nice time." "Oh, I did, I did, thank you. I enjoyed myself very much indeed." "Yes, I should think you must have.... Well, come down right away because dinner's ready when you are." Galusha hastened up the stairs.
I don't mind tellin' you, as man to man, that I've been thinkin' things out; and the upshot is I don't say 'tis certain, but 'tis probable that in the near futur' I shall be spendin' a heap o' my time at Rilla." "You'll be welcome. I can almost answer for it," Cai assured him heartily. "You've noticed it, eh? . . . Well, that saves a lot o' trouble."
And then Well, she's here, Torchy; came yesterday, and I presume she expects to see me to-night." "That's encouragin', anyway," says I. But Mallory don't seem so much cheered up. It turns out that Sis is spendin' a few days with friends here, waitin' for the rest of the fam'ly to come on and sail for Europe. They're givin' a farewell dinner dance for her, and Skid is on the list.
Parish Thornton shook his head with gravity and answered with candour: "Hump and old Jim an' me've been spendin' a heap of thought on this matter of ther riders," he told her. "Hit's got ter be broke up afore hit gits too strong a holt an' hit hain't no facile matter ter trace down a secret thing like thet."
She's a great hand to visit; she 'll be spendin' the day somewhere from now till Thanksgivin', but there 's plenty o' places at the Landin' where she goes, an' if I ain't there she 'll just select another. I thought mother might be in, too, 'tis so pleasant; but I run up the road to look off this mornin' before you was awake, and there was no sign o' the boat.
I says so to Matildy Tripp, said it right out, too: 'Matildy, I says, 'he's got a screw loose up aloft just as sure as you're a born woman! 'What makes you think so? says she. 'Well, says I, 'do you s'pose anybody that wan't foolish would be for spendin' good money on an old house to make it OLDER? I says. Goin' to tear down the piazza the fust thing!
"I've heard it straight that every pauper had a suit o' clothes, a coffin, a six-foot grave, and a headboard comin' to him from the County. That's the law." "Look here, Lem, use a little sense. Now what's the use spendin' County money on these paupers from God knows where? That's a good blanket." "Oh, yes, that's a peach of a blanket. Kind of a shame to waste such a good blanket, ain't it?
He sent you this, and says to tell you it's our first spendin' spree and act accordin'." From her pocket she drew a folded check, made out in blank to Calvin Gray and signed by Gus Briskow. "So! I assume that I'm to pay the bills. Very well. The sky is the limit, eh?" "That's it.
Everybody has a nature, an' I have mine, an' bedam to it!" "What do you want me to do?" Marsh asked, putting his exercises together. "I want you to try an' put some big wish into his heart," Mr. Quinn replied. "Try an' make him as eager about Irelan' as you are. I want him to spend himself for something that's bigger than he is, instead of spendin' himself on something that's smaller than he is."
