All this came to him while the little old man was looking up into his face, chuckling, and shaking his hand as if he were one of the most important and most greatly to be desired personages in the world. "Hope there's nothing wrong, Cap'n?" he repeated. "Right as a trivet here, Dad," replied the young man, dropping the cold hand that still persisted in clinging to his own.
Don't go sittin' up. I don't know when I'll be in." "I'll hot some cocoa for you last thing and leave it on the trivet." "Sha'n't want cocoa." "What shall you want then?" "Oh, Lord!" His nerves were all on edge. He couldn't bear it. "Nothing!" he cried, as he rushed out. At the gate it struck him that he had been a brute to her. He turned. He rushed back to her.
The atmosphere of the room was warm and sickly. A small green-shaded lamp stood by the looking-glass in front of the window; it cast a disk of light below, and on the ceiling concentric rings of light and shade, which flickered ceaselessly, and were at times all but obliterated in a gleam from the fireplace. A kettle sang on the trivet.

There is a girl I love, and they have tried to interfere with her." "They haven't succeeded?" "No, by George! And now I'm as right as a trivet.
I only wanted to take you in my round. Are you all right?" "Right as a trivet, sir; only I am getting awful short of ammunition. I don't want to keep on potting these 'ere fellows, but somehow I took to rifle-shooting. There's some fun in hitting a mark at a distance, and that's the only thing I ever got a kind word for from old Tipsy. He said I could shoot."
We came to our old empty house, where they provided us in bedding and coverlids, and gave us some fuel They gave us the carcase of a small lean sheep, as food for us three in six days, and lent us a pot and trivet to boil our flesh, and gave us a platter of millet every day.
A trivet stood on the glowing coals, and the pan soon warmed through. Father and the men took their places. Foster came in sleepily. "Where's James?" inquired his mother. "I don't want him in the field to-day. He can weed in the garden. You send him with the dinners." "Where was yesterday morning's text, Foster?" Mrs. Manning asked sharply. The boy looked up blankly.
