"He tawld me hisself. He's tellin' everybody hisself. It comed to a climax to-day.
That's cause I cleared a thousan' pound in wan trip. Christ was aboard, an' He bid me shoot the nets by munelight off the islands. He do look arter His awn somethin' butivul, as I tawld En. An' now I be a feesher o' men, which is better, an' high 'mong the salt o' the airth, bein' called to walk along wi' James an' John an' the rest."
"He 'm happier 'n me or you, I lay." "Not him! You should see un glower 'pon me when I gives un 'gude day.

"Well, you won't see un sitting under the stars in his white coat, poor auld blid.
Leastways, that's wan on's names, but I never can call home the other, though he tawld me wance. He was here last early spring-time, an' painted a gert picture of me up 'pon top the hill they calls Gorse Point."
Neot had a well, an' wan day he seed three feesh a swimmin' in it an' he was 'mazed to knaw how they comed theer.

"She was anxious 'bout the Lunnon trains an' tawld me she was travelin' up to town to-morrow," explained the man. "I weer 'pon the lookout this marnin', but she dedn' come again."

"She'll come round," said Martin; "she's only a young girl yet." "And there 's fish as good in the sea as ever came out, and better," declared his brother.
