"He can't be that foolish.",“Well, if you don’t want me to show you. But really, if my little finger were only big enough, I could lift the lamp just with that.”，"The day arter th' young gen'man was killed."，Billy had heard and understood. When his dad sent him one of those "up and away" signals he never questioned its significance. He didn't like listening in secret, but surely he reasoned, a boy had a right to know just what was coming to him. And he knew what was coming to him, all right—a caning from the supple hickory ramrod—maybe!，“You’d better come into our house to get yourself dry,” said Tellef.It was the evening of the next day.

They peered everywhere around the wharf for a boat that they could use. Not a sign of one was to be seen; not a boat of any kind—to say nothing of one that they could borrow in such a hurry.
