A negress, is she not?",“Lost him,” reported Ted. “Clumsy fool I am!”,“To think you let that good-fer-nothin’ Ken Judson, meet our schoolmarm,” wailed Mrs. Wopp. “Why he is the most ungodly feller in town. His folks in England send him a lot of money so’s he will keep away from them, an’ he spends it all in drinkin’ an’ gamblin’.”,Hinter was still seated on the fence when Billy turned the curve in the road. "I wonder what he wants of Lost Man's Swamp," mused the boy. "An' I wonder what he's scared somebody'll find there?","Yes, but I was wrong; I made a mistake."，“At my brother’s Mrs. Wopp. He had just acquired it, so of course little proficiency was yet attained.”，"Don't you go making suggestions of that sort," warned Bruce, with impressive authority. "The girl will feel as though her great-grandmother were a thief."，“Mr. Whitney told me something about it and the reason I’m late to-day is that I got mixed up in the mess—”"I am making a call on a friend, Dr. Moore, and not a consultation visit to my physician," I said, looking into his face as though I had never seen him before.
