I watched him, 'n' he rid, very slow, all raoun' by the Institoot, 'n' acted as ef he was spyin' abaout. He looks to me like a man that's calc'latin' to do some kind of ill-turn to somebody. I should n't like to have him raoun' me, 'f there wa'n't a pitchfork or an eel-spear or some sech weep'n within reach.
So when I got up to the door I didn't go in right away; I jest stood outside." "Listenin', hey! Spyin'!" "Yup. I don't think much of folks that listens, gin'rally speakin', but there's times when I b'lieve in it. When I'm foolin' with a snake I'd jest as soon hit him from behind as in front.
To-night's changed everything for me, and you, too. You are goin' to stand by me, aren't you, Churn, through thick and thin?" "You bettcha life! For de whole of vot I'm vorth!" Kit's tone changed. She chuckled. "You may be worth a lot. You've married a rich heiress. See?" "Sh, girl! If Chuff comes spyin' on us we don't vant him to hear dat word 'married. He'd only laugh or vorse." "All right!
"'Fraid of 'Lonzo's crowd spyin' on us?" Captain Cy did not reply. He did not even sit down, but remained standing, his back to the stove. "Well?" he asked shortly. "Did you fellers want to see me for anything 'special?" "Wanted to see what had struck you all to once," replied Mr. Tidditt. "Bailey says you scared him half to death this forenoon.
'Silk weavers has been petitioning Ministers t' make a law to favour silk buttons; and I did hear tell as there were informers goin' about spyin' after metal buttons, and as how they could haul yo' before a justice for wearing on 'em.
He's got a mighty good hawk eye fer spyin' out evil an' the gals; he can outholler ole Jim; an' IF," I says, "any IDEES ever comes to him, he'll be a hell-rouser shore but they ain't comin'!" An', so sayin', I takes my foot in my hand an' steps fer home. Stranger, them fellers over thar hain't seed much o' this world. Lots of 'em nuver seed the cyars; some of 'em nuver seed a wagon.
Then, in a great voice, moved to rare anger: "Oot o' this afore I do ye a hurt, ye meeserable spyin' creetur" he roared. "Yo' mun wait till dark cooms to hide yo', yo' coward, afore yo daur coom crawlin' aboot ma hoose, frightenin' the women-folk and up to yer devilments. If yo've owt to say to me, coom like a mon in the open day. Noo git aff wi' yo', afore I lay hands to yo'!"
But a little general conversation in a nice kind of way, neither spyin' nor lyin' may do him good and not be altogether despised by the the other party." He looked back and could dimly see Mr. Joseph sitting up on the blanket. He had removed his hat, and his hands were pressed to his head. Charlotte Dexter was in the furthest corner of the waggon, a dark, stern, ominous figure.
He hastily tossed the little carcass into the water, and then regretted having done so. "What are you spying on me for?" he demanded hotly. The word was strange to Bela, but the tone conveyed its sense. She promptly took fire from his heat. Showing herself proudly, she said: "I not know spyin'." "Following me around," said Sam. "Watching what I do without my knowing."
On Saturday the inevitable explosion came: "If you please, mum, I'm willin' to do your work, but seems to me it don't make no difference to you whether I wear one apron or six, or whether I hang my dish-towels on a string or on the bars, or whether I wash goblets or kittles first; and I ain't in the habit of havin' folks spyin' round on me.
