“Well I’m not going to stay an’ play kid games,” Jimmy retorted loftily, and turned away. Betty had lent Moses fifteen cents of her Christmas money and was receiving two pink and white candy canes as her weekly dividend—“truly a lean annuitant.” “A deed to the stone house, the Ha’nt, May Nell calls it. I was glad to know of something you wanted; and I’ll furnish the money to redeem the place to your idea of the beauty it deserves. It is a splendid location.

He noticed with a second sinking feeling that Jimmy’s face twitched with pain, that his right arm hung limp. May Nell looked at him a minute before speaking. “You like doing things, but you don’t like work. Isn’t work doing things?”.
