Alford. "Not very p'lite, Square, I know," said Mr. Alford, "but possession is nine p'ints of the law, as I've heerd you say; and as you won't deny the handwritin', I s'pose you don't question my right to these 'ere." The rage of Mr. Clamp may be imagined. "Good mornin', Square," said the triumphant executor.
Wall, when I see with these four eyes the very paper that Washington, the Immortal Founder of His Country, had rested his own hand on when I see the very handwritin' of his right hand and the written thoughts of hisen, which made it seem some like lookin' into the inside of that revered and noble head, my feelin's riz up so that they wuz almost beyend my control, and I had to lean back hard on the pillow of megumness that I always carry with me to stiddy myself with.
Well, you heard what that man said just now that we had found our luck. It's so; we have had good luck since. But I'm sorry; do get on with the story of Jeems' box."

Pennycook leaned his greasy elbows on the delivery window and gazed long and sternly at Miss Pickett.

"'Tain't so!" shrilled the spinster. "Well, this man McGraw says it is so, an' he's goin' to get an expert to prove it.
Treaties of peace and alliance, pardon of Louisiana and Florida, Alaska, etc., all in Uncle Sam's own handwritin'. And then there wuz the arms of the United States and hain't it a sight how fur them arms reach out north and south, east and west protectin' and fosterin' arms a good deal of the time they are, and then how strong they can hit when they feel like it!
