"You come and see me next spring, my lads, and I'll show you where there's more pie-wipes' eggs than ever you found before in your lives." "But you'll take us one day to the 'coy, Dave?" said Dick. "Nay, I don't think I can," said Dave. "But it's my father's 'coy," said Dick. "Ay, I know all about that," said the man harshly; "but it wean't be much good to him if he dree-erns the fen."
"Well, let's look at the basket, Dave." "Nay; I wean't hev my hooks and lines tangled up just after I've laid 'em ready. Yow two wait and see when we get acrost to wheer the pike lays." "Oh, very well!" said Dick in a disappointed tone. "I would have shown you what we've got in our basket." "I know what you've got yow telled me," retorted Dave.
"Toft Fen wean't niver be drained, mester," said Dave in a low voice, as he rested his pole in the punt and stood there looking as if he believed himself to be a prophet. "Oh, you think so, do you, Dave?" said the squire quietly.
"No, not very bad as to his wound, my lad; but this is a terrible business." "Ay, mester, it is trubble. Straange thing to hev first one man shot and then another. Say, squire, hope it wean't be our turn next." "Go on eating, Tom," whispered Dick, setting the example, and cutting a slice for his companion, while Tom hacked the bread. "I'm hard at work," said Tom thickly.
I want you' to hold your tongues, now, and to let this sad business die a natural death. You understand?" "Oh yes, sir." "Chatter grows into bad news sometimes. There, good-evening. I dare say you'll hear news about the poor fellow some day." "Nay, we wean't," said old Tummus, when the bailiff was gone.
"Come on, Tom!" said Dick, and they stepped out at once so suddenly that the decoy-man, in spite of his self-control, started. A curious smile puckered his face directly and he stood staring at them. "Why, you have been a long time, Dave," cried Dick. "Long, boy?" "Yes, long. You asked us to come over and see the netting." "Ay, so I did, boy; but there soon wean't be no netting."
One while saying, laughingly, to Nicholas, across the bread-and-butter plate which they had just been emptying between them, "Ye wean't get bread-and-butther ev'ry neight, I expect, mun. Ecod, they dean't put too much intif 'em. Ye'll be nowt but skeen and boans if you stop here long eneaf. Ho! ho! ho!" all this to Nicholas's unspeakable indignation.
"Oh well, I wean't stick out," said the farmer rather sulkily; "but Dave's a rare good shot and one of us will hev to go home flat on his back before we get up to yon wood." "He will not dare to fire," said the squire firmly. "I do not agree with you, Mr Winthorpe," said Marston. "The man is desperate, and he will do anything now to escape."
'Dang it, thee bean't afeard o' schoolmeasther's takkin cold, I hope? 'N-no, said Smike, his teeth chattering in his head. 'But he brought me back before, and will again. He will, he will indeed. 'He wull, he wull! replied John impatiently. 'He wean't, he wean't. Look'ee!
"Ay, ay, squire!" roared the great fellow, and he rushed down to the water's edge like a bull, while the squire went to the other end. "Neighbour," cried Farmer Tallington excitedly, "you'll go on, wean't you? I must get in and bring out a few writings and things I'd like to save." "Here, Tom, let's you and me get out the clothes and things."
