"Thought we'd like to see you fer a minute er two, Harry," he added gravely, as he and his chum seated themselves.,"Maurice," remonstrated Mrs. Wilson, smothering the sympathy in her heart in the clutch of duty, "it's wrong fer you to take advantage of your pore ma's deefness this way. I wouldn't send Willium back with you, anyways. What devilment you wouldn't think of he certainly would. No, I'll ask your ma to let you come, but it's Anson I'll have bring you home an' not Willium." And with a frown and a shake of her head she followed her neighbor into the house.,"He'll never find the Scroggie will," he would speak again. "He'll always be poor.",Billy did not follow. Something, perhaps the primitive man in him, cautioned the unwisdom of so doing. From the dim, far-back ages woman has run and man has pursued. But a few wise men have waited.,"I am sorry to say," said the Admiral, sinking into a chair, "that I have brought no news."，"Swim it, same's I did," Billy called back.，Was this the brand of boy this Shagland Settlement bred, he wondered.

This gentleman," said he, addressing the Admiral, "has exactly described the figure of a man who passed me in the cabin two or three days ago when I was talking to Mr Lawrence. Judging that he belonged to the ship, and being struck by his appearance, I asked Mr Lawrence who he was, and he answered that he was a poor devil whom he had shipped as a steward or captain's waiter out of pity, and he said something about having once paid a fine for[Pg 186] the man to rescue him from a term of imprisonment to which he would have been sentenced for some trifling offence.","Foller me then, an' remember to keep quiet," cautioned Billy.,"You shall never find me one!" he cried with impetuosity. "But I am to win you, and will you tell me the poet or the philosopher who has ever spoken of the strategies employed in love as villainy?","It would be convenient to me if you would fix a day for the first payment if you cannot pay the whole," said Mr Greyquill.,Maurice opened his mouth and protruded his stained and swollen tongue.,Billy nodded.,"Holy Smoke! Bill, take it away!" he yelled, as his chum's laugh fell on his ears.,"We knew that," cried Billy, eagerly; "that's why we come to you, Harry.
