The delegation apologized, and Caleb tapped a keg of cider and opened a box of choice biscuits just to show that there were no hard feelings. Now this in itself was surely indisputable proof of the confidence his neighbors reposed in Caleb's veracity and honesty, but considering the fact that Caleb had once quarrelled with the elder Stanhope, later refusing all overtures of friendship from the latter, and had even gone so far as to cherish the same feeling of animosity toward the son, Frank, that trust was little short of sublime.

There will be lots and lots of yellow plums.”,"Well," said Old Man, "you have chosen; there will be an end to them.",Little Red Riding-Hood undressed, and went to the bedside, and was very much astonished to see how different her grandmother looked to what she did when she was up and dressed.,"What a curious child you are!" he says, at length. "You are never the same for two minutes together.",For a moment Jerry seemed to hesitate. Then he answered:,"But Bill," urged Jim, "the oil they've found there'll make you rich.","O Death! thou strange, mysterious power, seen every day yet never understood but by the incommunicative dead, what art thou?","Bless your heart, no indeedy!" replied Miss Jinny emphatically.
