There isn't a one in the place can bate him at the reapin', an' you should see the long, straight furrows he can plough. The child's the image of him, an' I declare by the way he's tuggin' at me ... be quit, will you, you wee tory, an' not be hurtin' me with your greed!... he'll be as strong as his da, an' mebbe stronger!" "Are you stayin' long?" she said again. "No," he answered.
He had made some inquiries as to where she intended staying, even added a half-hearted invitation to dinner that evening at his home. But she declined. "No, thank you, Abner," she said, "I'm goin' to find a boardin' place and I'd just as soon nobody knew where I was stayin', for the present. And there's one thing I want to ask you: don't tell a soul I am here. Not a soul.
"I don't know what she's stayin' with that feller Crewe for," the farmer remarked; "of all the etarnal darn idiots why, Brush Bascom and that Botcher and the rest of 'em are trailin' him along and usin' him for the best thing that ever came down here. He sets up to be a practical man, and don't know as much as some of us hayseeds in the back seats. Where be you goin'?"
"I believe you're purty near the truth," replied Jemmy, "but I was near forgettin' it seems the Crowner of the country is sick, an' there can't be an inquest held till he recovers; if he ever does recover, an' if it 'ud sarve poor ould Dalton, that he never may, I pray God this day! come away, you'll be killed for stayin'."
"Why, it begun at the Golconda House, the hotel where Sim and I was stayin'. We " "Did YOU put up at the Golconda?" interrupted Barzilla. "Why, Cap'n Jonadab and me stayed there when we went to New York." "I know you did. Jonadab recommended it to Sim, and Sim took the recommendation. That Golconda House is the only grudge I've got against Jonadab Wixon. It sartin is a tough old tavern."
"Well, I never could see what there was in salt water!" said Mrs. Flandin, "that folks should be so crazy to go into it! If I was drownin', 'seems to me I'd rather have my mouth full o' sun'thin' sweet." "But I was not drowning," said Diana. "Well, I want to know what you've got by stayin' away from your place all summer" her mother went on.
"Yes yes, I know you did. But, Shadrach, if she don't stay here for good where will she stay? She ain't got anybody else to go to." "She is stayin', ain't she? She she's makin' us a visit, same as I said she could. What more do you want? Jumpin' fire! This fix is your doin' anyway. 'Tain't mine. If you had paid attention to what I said, the child wouldn't have been here at all." "Now, Shadrach!

We're boun' to go under, if we don't " "Don't what, Walt?" "Git away from hyar." "Impossible." "No. Thar's still a chance, I think for us two anyways. There ain't many o' the others left, an' ef thar war, we can't do 'em any good now. Our stayin' 'ud be no use no use dyin' along wi' 'em; while ef we get clar, we mout live to revenge 'em.

Thin he asked me where I was a livin' in London, and, when I towld him nowhere, he towld me av a room in Musson Street, here by Drury Lane, that was to let, in a house his fam'ly knew very well, an' I wint straight there an' tuk ut, an' there I do be stayin' still, sor."
