"That Jim Scroggie, the heir, has come back, an' he's rented the Stanley house," Mrs. Wilson was saying. "They say he's goin' to cut down the big woods an' sell the timber. I guess he intends stayin' right on, 'cause he brought his housekeeper an' his two children, a boy and a girl, with him." "He did.

"And you mean to tell me that she hatches the egg laid by the mean, bad black bird, Billy?" "Will we foller 'em, Bill?" asked Maurice eagerly. Billy had thrown off his shooting-coat and was climbing out of the blind. "I don't want Maurice," Billy hastened to explain. "Ma wants Missus Keeler to come over an' give her a hand, so I'm on my way to tell her. Honest, Mr. Keeler, that's right.".
