I shall marry her, and so destroy the influence of that vile negress." "Why do you speak of her?" asked Maurice, fiercely, while David looked loweringly at Etwald. "She has everything to do with them. She will be brought up against you as a witness." "Yis. Dat so," said Dido, with pretended surprise, turning on him sharply. "But you no b'lieve in Obi, massa.
