“But, Mose, you shorely didn’t fergit a sorft answer turneth away wrarth?” Yet before one could think, almost before the paper had time to burn, Jimmy sprang to her, seized her in his arms, tearing at the shrivelling paper, and jumped far out over the flaming boat into a deep pool. Now he flew off down the county road at a speed that made passers turn; but he saw no one.
