"That little dawg be wurth twenty pun!" said one of the rustics to Mary, on one occasion when she was sitting in her little garden, carefully brushing and combing the silky coat of the little "toy" "Th'owd man thee's been a' nussin' ought to give 'im to thee as a thank-offerin'." "I wouldn't take him," Mary answered "He's perhaps the only friend the poor old fellow has got in the world.
Yet, by way av a thank-offerin' that I was not led into felony by that wicked ould woman, I'll send a thrifle to Father Victor for the poor people he's always beggin' for." But me an' Orth'ris, he bein' Cockney, an' I bein' pretty far north, did nut see it i' t' saame way. We'd getten t' brass, an' we meaned to keep it. An' soa we did for a short time.

He reckoned it was pay for stoppin' the train and helpin' to put on the trunks, but the railroad pays him for doin' that, so the milkman thinks it was kind of a thank-offerin', on account of her havin' stayed so long that they was glad to get rid of her." "'Twasn't no thank-offerin'," replied Grandmother, shaking her head sagely. "That's what they call a tip."
