"Heard about him," said Johnson; "all fake, you know. The quickness of the 'and deceives the hi." Such is fame. Gerald, standing in the shadow, jingled the loose money in his pocket to console himself.

He rubbed it lovingly against his freckled cheek, held it until it got warm in the palm of his hand, and then put it back in his pocket and jingled it against a couple of pennies which were its only companions. "A whole sovereign," he said to himself "a whole sovereign, and I never had so much as five shillings of my own in the whole course of my life. Well, she is a little witch.
Peter muttered, rolled over uneasily, opened his eyes and leaped up, springing aside from that golden circle of light in well-simulated alarm. "Hush-h!" said the whisper. "I'm going to let you out.

And he had a suspicion that Ruth knew his reasons for desiring to keep away from his home and friends. He looked wildly about the lonely crossroads. The panting of the locomotive exhaust was not the only sound he heard. The two mules hitched to the timber wagon the only wagon standing by the store jingled their harness as they shook their heads.

The coins tickled the tips of his fingers very pleasantly as he let them fall, and jingled musically in the darkness. At last he paused for a moment to say: "You promised to get me a berth, remember.
