"Why-e!" said Chloe, with an accent of surprise and delight; "and how long would it take me to work it out, Missis?" "Some four or five years, Chloe; but, then, you needn't do it all, I shall add something to it." "I wouldn't hear to Missis' givin lessons nor nothin. Mas'r's quite right in dat ar; 't wouldn't do, no ways. I hope none our family ever be brought to dat ar, while I 's got hands."
