On the pleasant hills about the village shepards could be seen tendin' their flocks as they did on the night when the angels and the multitude of the heavenly hosts appeared to them bearing tidings of great joy that that night a Saviour wuz born. "Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, goodwill to men."
"Ach, my goodness, what for? When it's me here alone. I think the house looks nice. My flowers are real pretty this year, once. Course, I don't fool with them like you do. I have the kind that don't take much tendin' and come up every year without bein' planted. Calico flowers and larkspur and lady-slippers are my kind.
"I bet you burned that toll-gate the morning I left here. Thar's devilmint goin' on everywhar, an' if there's any around you I know you can't keep out o' it." Steve laughed with relief. "You can't git away with devilmint here like you can in the mountains, an' I'm 'tendin' to my own business."
Now wot's to hev kept that young feller from coming HERE and droppin' down in my forge, or in this very room, and YOU a tendin' him, and jist layin' over them folks at The Lookout?" "Wot's got hold o' ye, Pop? Don't I tell ye he had a letter to Jim Bradley?" said Minty, quickly, with an angry flash of color in her cheek.
"It looks as if I'd got to see to the youngster, if she stays here. Miss Ada's not much better than the rest of you. What does she know about babies? I guess Ellis can beat the best of you, after all, when it comes to 'tendin' babies." The little girls felt properly abashed. Only the second day of the baby's stay and she had gone hungry for an hour, while the day before she had been overfed.
She 'd go off to dances, an' leave Dixie to home tendin' cradle; but that wa'n't no hardship to him for he was 'bout as much wropped up in the child as he was in Fiddy. Wall, sir, 'bout a month ago she up 'n' disappeared off the face o' the airth 'thout sayin' a word or leavin' a letter.
"First keep on keepin' your mouth shut and tendin' to business. It pays. Second always drop your reins over a hoss's head when you get off, whether he's trained that way or not. And last always figure a hoss thinks he knows more than you do. Sometimes he does. Sometimes he don't. Then he won't fool you so frequent, for you'll be watchin' him.
Here I am sweatin, and workin, and bakin, all these hot days, and Brown he's doin nothin from morning 'till night but reading Abolition papers, and tendin Abolition meetings. I'm not much better than a nigger myself, half the time. "Now," said Arthur, "Mr. Hubbard, I have been fortunate in my experience.
"The battery's out there yit, Si," said Shorty, as they gathered themselves up and carefully stamped out every spark of fire. "It's 'tendin' strictly to business," remarked Wes Williams. "Its ammynition don't seem to be a mite wet," added Jim Hutchinson. "There, you see, now," said the Colonel sternly. "I'll tie up by the thumbs the next man that dares scratch a match."
"Didn't you once live in New York State?" "Yes." "Near Rochester?" "Yes." "On a farm?" "Yes." "Hev' you forgot the young feller that drove the team, the chap that got his walkin' papers in the dead o' winter, and was actually kicked into the road jest because he was absent one time to see his sister who was tendin' school in the city?
