"Railly an' truly," said Zac, solemnly, "that's my identical meanin' jest it, exactly; an' 'tain't overly pleasant, no how. See here;" and Zac dropped his voice to still lower tones, and drew still nearer to Claude, as he continued "see here, now; I'll tell you what happened jest now.
"Ay ban Nels Swanson." "Huh! Well, it's little the loikes o' ye iver railly knows about names, Oi 'm thinkin'.

Gien she wad but confess, houp wad spring to life in her sin-oppressed soul!

"Div ye railly think it, Ma'colm?" sighed the factor with a flush. "I div that, sir.
