"It was dirty mean of you," sniffled Anson. "You know how much I like pie an' tarts; an' here I am havin' to lug yourn an' gettin' none fer myself. Fer two cents I'd chuck this dinner-pail in the crick." She set the bowls down on the little table beside the bed, placed the lamp beside them, then leaning over tucked the blankets about the boys. "That's all. Jest Walter Watland.".
