But gin ye du the thing I tell ye, ye'll be i' the mids o' 't afore ye ken 'at ye're gaein' intil 't." I jist thocht I wad try him. It was at lang division that I boglet maist.

'Ye'll min', maybe, doctor, 'at ye war verra kin' to me ance, and tellt me lots o' stories at Bodyfauld, ye ken. 'I'm very glad to see you, Robert, said Dr. Anderson. 'Of course I remember you perfectly; but my servant did not bring your name, and I did not know but it might be the other boy I forget his name. 'Ye mean Shargar, sir. It's no him.
"You doing it too?" "Yes, sir." The Captain turns again to the prisoner. "Why didn't you lodge a complaint?" "I did, sir. I tellt" indicating Corporal Mather with an elbow "this genelman here."

And some think it grand to have a ghost so long as they're no in the way of coming across it. If you had been tellt the story to begin with, maybe ye would have thought so yourself."
