"Wa'al," said David, with his arm over the back of his chair and his left hand resting on his desk, "that's so, ain't it?"

When he left the cabin, the old man called after him from the door: "Thar's goin' to be a shootin'-match among the boys to-morrer, 'n' I jedge that Easter '11 be on hand. She al'ays is." "Is that so?

To-morrer you'll be goin round complainin about your liver!" I sot up a spell by the kitchen fire readin Lewis Napoleon's "Life of Julius Caesar." What a reckless old cuss he was!

"Yes yes, I s'posed you did, but " "Sim, don't bother me now. This is my last day here at the depot, and I've got things to do." "Your last day? Why, what ?" Captain Sol told briefly of his resignation and of the coming of the new depot master.
