“When I see Moses was still wearin’ his best Sunday coat an’ pants an’ tearin’ along on that cayuse like John Gilping, I come all out in goose-flesh, Ebenezer, till you’d think the merkery had fell clean down to zero.” “Doubtless it is incorporated in the language of some foreign people,” conceded Mrs. Mifsud, languidly.
