"He always was a notional little man," the women said, on hearing this. The old bachelor was losing his wits. Such doctrine as he held made him out not one whit better off than Zinie Shadd, who averred that the heart of man was but a pendulum swaying in his bosom though how it still moved when he stood on his head was more than even Zinie Shadd could fathom, to be sure.
Dinah Shadd ran out wid water, an' Judy dhragged the ould woman into the verandah till she sat up. "I'm old an' forlore," she sez, thremblin' an' cryin', "and 'tis like I say a dale more than I mane." "When you're able to walk, go," says ould Mother Shadd. "This house has no place for the likes av you that have cursed my daughter." "Eyah!" said the ould woman.
He bein' a civilian now, an' you niver was aught else. Can you not let the Arrmy rest? 'Tis not good for Terence." I took refuge by Mulvaney, for Dinah Shadd has a temper of her own. "Let be let be," said Mulvaney. "'Tis only wanst in a way I can talk about the ould days."
"I'm some worried," explained Withers. "Joe thinks he saw a bunch of horsemen trailing us. My eyes are bad and I can't see far. The Indian will find out. I took a roundabout way to reach the village because I'm always dodging Shadd." This communication lent an added zest to the journey. Shefford could hardly believe the truth that his eyes and his ears brought to his consciousness.
'Did I iver tell you how Dinah Shadd came to be wife av mine? I dissembled a burning anxiety that I had felt for some months ever since Dinah Shadd, the strong, the patient, and the infinitely tender, had of her own good love and free will washed a shirt for me, moving in a barren land where washing was not. 'I can't remember, I said casually.
Stand off from him, Dinah Shadd, before he takes you down too you that look to be a quarther- master-sergeant's wife in five years. You look too high, child.
Shefford easily recognized a low, broad, squat rider to be Shadd. Assuredly the Piute did not know this country. Possibly, however, he had feared an ambush. But Shefford grew convinced that Shadd had not expected an ambush, or at least did not fear it, and had mistaken the Indian's course.
Mary Ann Shadd, a very intelligent young lady, peculiarly eccentric, published an excellent pamphlet, issued from the press in Wilmington, Delaware, in 1849, on the elevation of the colored people. The writer of this work, was favored with an examination of it before publication, which he then highly approved of, as an excellent introduction to a great subject, fraught with so much interest.
It was a sore point with Sam Dreed that the ship chandler had that day effected a lien for labor on his ship, and the libel was nailed to the mast. "Now they'll scandalize each other," murmured Zinie Shadd. They were turned from that purpose only by the sudden passing at their backs of the woman in question, Caddie Sills. Quiet reigned.
Shadd has her own opinion, like iv'ry woman, 'Tis wid yours this time, for a mericle, sez Mother Shadd. 'Thin why in the name av fortune did I niver see her before? sez I. 'Bekaze you've been thrapesin' round wid the married women these three years past.
