That's the thing that scared him so he quit the school ferever. Now, Willium, what did you have to do with that?" "Jest the same as ever. There, teacher, it fair laughed right out at us then." "Oh, is that so? Well, my smooth friend, you're liable to learn that my jurisdiction extends further than you think. Now see here, Jacobs. You know—and I know—that I have enough on you already to put you away where you'll do little harm for several years to come. Do you want me to do it?" "What dye you want, boy?"
