"Phew! teacher, some pull, that! Must'a been half an hour beatin' up from Levee." "You told me to bring it in, didn't you?" Billy inquired, mildly. Anson almost sobbed his relief. "I'll do it," he agreed. "What is it you want'a know, Bill?".

He had found a “dandy job” that would not take him away from home; he could still mow the lawn, and do the chores.
