“I dassent do it, Betty,” replied Moses. “Anyhow this ole pair of scissors ’d do the job better.” How sweet and dear they all were! How peaceful it looked in there,—too peaceful, clean, for a dirty, fighting brute like himself. What could he do? He shivered in the cold, and the pain in his eyes increased. Would he fall? Would they find him, have Doctor Carter, learn the disgraceful truth?
