And 'pears she was a very great lady indeed, and a beautiful young widder besides. So she and Mr. Brudenell, they fell in love long of each other. But law, you see her kinfolks was bitter agin her a-marrying of him which they called him a commoner, as isn't true, you know, 'cause he is not one of the common sort at all though I s'pose they being so high, looked down upon him as sich.
Marse Catlett lived on the corner of Seventh and Clay Streets, Hopkinsville, Kentucky. Wen I was older the white folks had me foh to nurse dar chilluns. I noes wen de war broke out marse had a store and den marsa took me to his wife's kinfolks down in de country till freedom war declared den my stepfather come an' got me.

Congratulations is presumptuous, lessen they come from kinfolks and friends, I reckon, and Mrs. Deford wouldn't care to get the kind I'd like to give. Pride is a sure destroyer, and as for haughty spirits! I ain't no student of history, but I've watched Yorkburg and I've seen right many different kinds of falls. I don't make no pretence of bein' a Miss Mary Cary kind of Christian.
The mountaineer took off his slouched hat and ran one hand through his thick black hair. "I reckon you've heard as how all our folks air sellin' out over the mountains." "No," said Hale quickly. "Well, they air, an' all of 'em are going West Uncle Judd, Loretty and June, and all our kinfolks. You didn't know that?" "No," repeated Hale.
I am still willing to walk a good distance to gaze on one of Rembrandt's portraits of one of his kinfolks, though I must say he certainly did have a lot of mighty homely relatives; and any time there is a first-rate Millet or Corot or Meissonier in the neighborhood I wish somebody would drop me a line, giving the address.
Miss Marie Ahnighito Peary, aged about ten months, who first saw the light of day at Anniversary Lodge on the 12th of the previous September, was taken by her mother to her kinfolks in the South. Mrs. Peary also took a young Esquimo girl, well known among us as "Miss Bill," along with her, and kept her for nearly a year, when she gladly permitted her to return to Greenland and her own people.
But that old fire blazed anew when the old man told him about the threats and insults of little Aaron Honeycutt, and the story of Mavis and Gray. "Mavis in thar," he rumbled, "stood up fer him agin me agin ME. She 'lowed thar wasn't a Hawn fitten to be kinfolks o' his even by marriage, less'n 'twas you." "An' she told me ME to mind my own business. Is that boy Gray comin' back hyeh?"
Apparently he had not heard her question. Instead of answering it he put one of his own: "Do you reckin now, ma'am, by any chance that there are any people still livin' back there in that town of Calais old neighbors of yours, or kinfolks maybe who'd remember the circumstances in reguard to your havin' took this baby in the manner which you have described?"
De mose of de Creole families is not so hold as plenty of my yallah kinfolks!" The apothecary found very soon that a little salt improved M. Raoul's statements. But here he was, a perfect treasure, and Frowenfeld, fleeing before his illimitable talking power in order to digest in seclusion the ancestral episodes of the Grandissimes and De Grapions, laid pleasant plans for the immediate future.
You took her away from her daddy, her family, her kinfolks and her home, an' you took her away from me; an' now she's been over thar eatin' her heart out just as she et it out over here when she fust left home. An' in the end she got so highfalutin that SHE wouldn't marry YOU." He laughed again and Hale winced under the laugh and the lashing words.
