He knew very well what the weather was; he knew all the kinds of fish that were for sale at the wharf every day; and he also knew that the old minister was to preach tomorrow; but do you suppose Aunt Grenertsen would believe a thing he told her? “I can’t depend on that,” she would say.,“Shall I come now?” asked the child, smiling.,“Of course you should have spoken to Father and Mother about it.”,"It is because that black woman distrusts me that you object," he said, when Mrs. Dallas had talked herself hoarse.
