The mate stayed there for some time, and buried the bodies which washed ashore. He found Judson's body first, and had most given up finding his wife's, when one day she washed into a little cove, and he buried them side by side. He came here to our house, and told us all about it. It was awful. It completely upsot Mis' Wetherell. Her health has been poor for a good many year.
Now you get his hide, Parson!" was the greeting that Dabney received, while I was ignored by all concerned. "That hinge in your back rusty again, Dabney?" questioned the parson, with leonine mildness. "I been upsot by my young mistis coming home," answered Dabney, with a quick glance at me as if to indicate me as a substantial excuse for any crimes.
"There ain't nary bitty sense in it." More interesting are substitutions of one sound for another. In mountain dialect all vowels may be interchanged with others. So any other vowel may serve in place of e: sarve, chist, upsot, tumble. The word coil is variously pronounced quile, querl or quorl. They never drop h, nor substitute anything for it.
"You'll get over it sooner than you think. How did the pail happen to turn over?" "Must have been de debbel, missus. I was kerryin' it just as keerful, when all at once it upsot." This explanation, though not very luminous to her visitor, appeared to excite a fierce spirit of resentment against the pail in the mind of little Pomp.
Why, I've run away to escape getting married." "Ah, that's all right, Miss. Ye ran away to escape one man, but I guess thar's another ye won't run away from. Isn't that true? Thar now, ye needn't blush an' git all confused. I'm old enough to be yer grandfather, so ye needn't git upsot at what I say. I'm only speakin' fer yer good.
You wasn't there. Didn't ye notice Ah looked sort o' upsot at drill?" "Yes...but how old are you, Chris!" "Ah'm twenty. You're older than me, ain't yer?" "I'm twenty-two." They were leaning against the wall of their barracks, looking up at the brilliant starry night. "Say, is the stars the same over there, overseas, as they is here?" "I guess so," said Andrews, laughing.
"I'm so upsot ever since I looked into that kitchen and see the poor soul down on the floor there that that all I'm sure of is that I ain't sure of nothin." "Well, I don't know's I blame you much, Isaiah," grunted the Captain. "Anyway, it doesn't make much difference about that letter, so fur as I see, whether there was one or not. What did you want to know for, Mary?" Mary hesitated.
Beside the queen swam still another of their enemies. Indeed, the sea devils had crept upon them and surrounded them everywhere except at the front, and Trot began to feel nervous and worried for the first time. Cap'n Bill kept mumbling queer words under his breath, for he had a way of talking to himself when anything "upsot him," as he would quaintly remark.
I want to ask if you'll come down to the house and see the boy; he's on the sick list." "What, Dusenberry?" "Yes, sir. He's pretty bad, I'm 'fraid, and the old lady's considerable upsot about him. If you just come down and kind of take an observation, so's we could sort of get our bearin's, as you might say, 'twould be a mighty help to all hands." "But where's your town physician?
I don't know how to go about it, but the fact is, Mack Cameron got drownded yesterday tryin to pull a little fool of a Frenchman out of the river just below the Lachine. We'd just got through the rough water and were lyin nice and quiet, gettin things together again when that ijit Frenchman got tite and got tryin some fool trick or other walking a timber stick and got upsot into the wet.
