"Suppose she was down on the wharves between half-past seven and eight. Most of the labourers would have been away breakfasting.

This done he wheeled round and walked the usual distance forward. Billy turned. "I didn't say I ate Anson's pie an' cake, Ma," he said gently. "I didn't take it 'cause I wanted it.".
