Little—why, she’s only a baby.”,“Hev ye ben doin’ suthin’ bad? Dassn’t ye go git yer things?”,"I can, however," said Jen, grimly. "Oh, it is just as I thought."，"It was found in these grounds."，"Now, sir speak," she says, at length in rather tremulous tones growing fearful of the lengthened silence.
