"That boy catches everythin' that comes along, anyway. I s'pose I'll have to quit my preservin' to mix him up a dose of allaways.","American, your honour.","Good gracious!" cried the mother, in alarm. "That good fer nuthin' boy has gone an' caught the foot an' mouth disease from Kearnie's sheep."，Elgin was about to answer when he caught a gasp from the watchers on the road. "Teacher's comin'!" went forth the cry.，Anson, still sniffling, finished his undressing. Billy nursed his knee in his hands and watched him.
