I I" she hesitated, and glanced at Enoch with a little expectant gasp. "Is thee alone?" inquired the old man. "Yes. That is only Baby. My husband has just just" her voice fluttered and died away helplessly. "Oh, thee's a widow," said Enoch gently. "Yes." The poor young thing looked up with a smile of wistful gratitude. "I'm not very strong. I heard this was a healthy place.
"and now, as this matter is ours, let us take all the risk, and do all the fighting." "Thee's quite welcome to do the fighting, George," said Phineas, chewing some checkerberry-leaves as he spoke; "but I may have the fun of looking on, I suppose. But see, these fellows are kinder debating down there, and looking up, like hens when they are going to fly up on to the roost.
When he had done speaking against "the mad wits that would not see," Hope laid her cool fingers on his arm and said, with a demure humour: "All the world's mad but thee and me, David and thee's a bit mad!"
"Here I am, Asenath," he said at length, hoarsely. "I said it was death, didn't I? Well, it's worse than death, I suppose; but what matter? You can't be more lost to me now than you were already. This is THY doing, Friend Eli," he continued, turning to the old man, with a sneering emphasis on the "THY." "I hope thee's satisfied with thy work!"
AMINADAB IVISON started up in his bed. The great clock at the head of the staircase, an old and respected heirloom of the family, struck one. "Ah," said he, heaving up a great sigh from the depths of his inner man, "I've had a tried time of it." "And so have I," said the wife. "Thee's been kicking and threshing about all night. I do wonder what ails thee."
I think that's safe for her to have all, is 't not, William? 'I think so, too, said he, writing on all the time. 'And thee shalt have t' roller and paste-board, because thee's so fond o' puddings and cakes. It 'll serve thy wife after I'm gone, and I trust she'll boil her paste long enough, for that's been t' secret o' mine, and thee'll noane be so easy t' please.
"Father," said Martha, seating herself with a bit of sewing in her hand, "I want to ask thee a few questions about business matters." The Doctor looked at her. "Well, thee's taking a new turn," he remarked. "Is it anything very important?" "Very important," she answered; "it's about my own fortune."
"Thanks do not agree with my constitution at all." "Hurrah!" cried Reuben, looking in at the parlor window. "Yes, here's the man to thank," I resumed. "Even after being struck by lightning he was equal to the emergency." "No, thee don't, Richard," laughed Reuben. "Thee needn't think thee's going to palm that thing off on me. We've all come to our senses now."
"And I've got a miller's thumb, too;" and he turned up his little thumb for confirmation of the fact. "Thee's not a miller's son," repeated the other, with a grin. "Thee's nobody's child, thee is. Master Lake's not thy vather, nor Mrs. Lake bean't thy mother. Thee was brought to the mill in a sack of grist, thee was." In saying which, the boy repeated a popular version of Jan's history.
