If these here young fellers git their way taxes will go right up. What do they want to decorate this here town all up for, anyhow? What you think young Toole was sayin' to me to-day?

One of the copies he had to deliver was the one purchased by Mrs.
The minister shook hands gravely, and the ladies who had run forward with shoe bags and tidies turned and walked coldly away. Eliph' Hewlitt smiled.
