Night came, and still the snow fell, and the wind blew in all its fury. It was on that cold, stormy night that a bright light might have been seen burning in the little house where Hanz Toodleburg lived.
Twelve years have passed since that stormy night when Titus Bright Toodleburg for the young gentleman as I have said before, was named after the inn-keeper, came into the world. Great changes have taken place since then. Tite, as the neighbors all call him, is now a bright, intelligent boy, and a great favorite in the village.
He understood, however, what was meant by it, for he had gone into court only a few weeks before and given such testimony as showed himself a knave and a hypocrite, though it saved Hanz Toodleburg from ruin. Mattie noticed the impression made on her mother by what Bright had said, but preserved a dignified silence.
And she kissed her mother, and retired for the night, the happiest woman in all Nyack. All was silent and dark in the little house where Hanz Toodleburg lived, when the wagon containing Tite and the inn-keeper drew up at the gate. A dull, dreamy stillness seemed to hang over the place, and the little, old house was in the full enjoyment of a deep sleep.
But he's a treasure to me, for all that " "My dear, my dear," interrupted Chapman; "what a kind way you have of paying compliments. Mrs. Toodleburg will not understand you, my dear. What more than any one else have I done for other people?" "You have been a perfect Christian, my dear, so you have," resumed Mrs.
Not more than a mile from the brisk little town of Nyack, on the Hudson river, and near where the road makes a sharp turn and winds up into the mountain, there lived, in the year 1803, an honest old farmer of the name of Hanz Toodleburg.
