"Why, he may have come with news of Lucy. Bid him step in!","She looks to me, sir, a worn-out bit of a brig about a hundred tons. Most sartinly there's nothing to be afraid of in her.",Erie was waving to him from the kitchen door. "Where's Maurice?" she called.,"Is our dinner up, Ma?" Billy asked, as he pushed back his chair.，"He shall wait upon you at the stroke, sir."，"I guess maybe it's your fancy playin' pranks on you, Mary," he suggested hesitatingly.
