"This is my wush," said the Laird, striking his rung upon the ground. The words had scarcely passed his lips when the whole homestead of Brockburn, house and farm buildings, was planted upon the bleak hill-side.

She was rested, an' hobbled on all by herse'f; but now, sence she done wush fur blessin' fur tudder folks, de spell was loosenin' an' de stone all drawerd up ter a little bit er stone, den sunk away in de groun' clar out o' sight. An' dat wuz de last ob de wushin'-stone." "Dar now!" exclaimed Aunt Milly. "De truff, sho'! jes like I ben tellin' yer," said Mammy.
Davy looked at the captain in unfeigned astonishment. "Weel, ye're the first man that iver said that, an' I thank 'ee, sir, but you're wrang, though I wush ye was right. But that's no' what I cam' to tell ye." Here the fisherman's indecision of manner returned. "Come, make a clean breast of it, lad. There are none here but friends." "Weel, sir, Ruby Brand "

But if your honour wad wush me to ony place where I wad hear pure doctrine, and hae a free cow's grass, and a cot, and a yard, and mair than ten punds of annual fee, and where there's nae leddy about the town to count the apples, I'se hold mysell muckle indebted t'ye." "Bravo, Andrew! I perceive you'll lose no preferment for want of asking patronage."
But after the table was set the excitement was all over, for there was nobody to be the guest. "Ef Ole Billy wan't so mean," said Chris, "we could fotch 'im hyear in de omnibus. I wush we'd a let Chubbum an' Suppum come; dey'd been Lord Bugon."
"Ah wush we could hae a bit strathspey frae the pipes to march wi' to the kirk, foreby." Lawyer Ed's face became forbidding. "Eh, eh, and that to an elder? Div ye hear yon, Jock?

"Well, mun, in er few days de whole yearth wuz er movin'; eb'ything dar wuz in de lan' wuz er gwine.

"Peggy Saville, I think it is vewy mean and unkind of you to wefuse to visit me when I asked you, and then to wush up from the countwee to stay with new fwiends who have not half the claim upon you that I have. If you would go to the Wollos', why not to me?"
