If you've got any valooables aboard that you'd rather not lose, you'd better stuff 'em in your pockets now. When things come to the wust mind your helm, an' look out as I used to say to my missus " He stopped abruptly and turned away. Evidently the thought of the "missus" was too much for him just then.
It was a tremendous storm! The oldest inhabitant of Blackby said, as well as his toothless gums would let him, that, "it wos the wust gale as had blow'd since he wos a leetle booy an' that warn't yesterday no, nor yet the day before!"
The wust of it was that I had tooken the automobile with me, to have a little work done on her, mind ye, an' so they had to hire a Ford to bring him up from the Falls. I wouldn't 'a' had it happen fer fifty dollars." Peter's tone was convincingly doleful. "And he has been confined to his room ever since? Poor old fellow! It's hard, isn't it?" "It sure is.
All I knows is that one o' the wust of the hull gang's a man named Nick Undrell." "Nick Undrell?" Kiddie repeated the name as if it were new to him. "Well, I guess Nick won't interfere with me any. Good evenin', boss. I shall be here on time. Don't worry."
Wust of it was, couldn't find out how long it took 'em, nor how the job was lotted out to each one." "I suppose they made their women do it," said Aunt Maria grimly. "Men usually put all the hard work on women." "Wal, women folks do a heap," admitted Glover, who never contradicted anybody. "But there's reason to entertain a hope that they didn't take the brunt of it here.
"He's de wust rascal wot I eber seen," whispered Old Ben sympathetically. "Wot a pity he wasn't shot down in de fust battle wot he eber got into!" "He wants to take us both out of the country, Ben." "Wot, away from ole South Carolina?" "Yes on a trip on the ocean." "I don't want to go, Massah Jack." "No more do I; but how can we help ourselves?" "I wish dis niggah could git free, Massah Jack."
"Wal, now, Tom," he said, "ye re'lly is too bad, as I al'ays have told ye; ye know, Tom, you and I used to talk over these yer matters down in Natchez, and I used to prove to ye that we made full as much, and was as well off for this yer world, by treatin' on 'em well, besides keepin' a better chance for comin' in the kingdom at last, when wust comes to wust, and thar an't nothing else left to get, ye know."
"As true as I live, I'll whip you till you can't stan'." As she spoke, she brandished her umbrella in a menacing manner. "Den, missus, I guess you'd better stay where you is." "Oh, you imp. See ef I don't have you put in jail. Here, you, Sam Thompson, come and help me out. Ef you don't, I'll tell your mother, an' she'll give you the wust lickin' you ever had. I'm surprised at you."
She's told her a lot o' stuff about the rocks, I can't make head nor tail on't; but it'd please you to see her fetchin' 'em in by the apern-full, an' goin' on about 'em, that is, if there was reely any place to put 'em afterwards. That's the wust on't. I tell you, it is jest makin' a life out o' pieces that come to hand.
"Sais I, 'the wust of it is, gentlemen, they are all so shocking large, and there is no small ones among them; they can't be divided into lots, still, as you seem to be disappointed, I will make you an offer for them, cash down, all hard gold. So I gave them a bid at a very low figure, say half nothing, 'and, sais I, 'I advise you not to take it, they are worth much more, if a man only knows what to do with them.
