How many are there of you?' 'Why,' he answered, 'there's me and the old woman and four youngsters and grandfather!' 'You never see meat, of course,' said I. 'Oh yes, we do,' he answered. 'Meat!'

Mr. Maddoc an' the specialist doctor are goin' to leave there an' stay at teacher's, as you likely know?".

"Oh!" she cried and hid her face on her arms. Maurice squirmed. "It seemed a lot longer than two weeks," he said faintly. "That's one on you, Tom," laughed the man named Jack. "Quit roasting the kid. We'd have been mired yet if it hadn't been for him." "Then why didn't you tell Spencer? Don't you know them thieves will find out you've been there an' they'll hide that stuff in a new place, Harry?".
