"Pomp look and tell Mass' George, but now too 'leepy, an' eye all 'tick togedder much, tell Mass' Morgan." "Then tell me," I whispered. He looked again, then seemed suddenly to grow interested, and as excited as we were, as he caught my arm. "Dem Injum!" "There, Master George. Quick! Fetch the captain." "No, no, fire and give the alarm," I said. "No. Better not. It will alarm them too.

Strangest, wildest practice of the slaves was the hideous misuse Christian masters allowed them to make of Chrismas Day and week. It was then they danced the bamboula, incessantly.
"Tis funny dat we bofe counts dem at de same tine, when each one is not doing it togedder." The only entrance to the enclosure, as it seems proper to call it, was the one used by the boys. Nothing to suggest a door, or any purpose of making one, was to be seen on any side of the walls.
I said, for Margaret kept silent. "And de oberseer, he say leastways he swore, he did dat his will should be done on dis plantation, and he wouldn't have no such work. He say, der's nobody to come togedder after it be dark, if it's two or t'ree, 'cept dey gets his leave, Mass' Ed'ards, he say; and dey won't get it." "But what did he do to Darry?"
