But I'll stand anything from you, 'cause how, you down'd my house in a fa'r tussle, and you helped the captain thar that helped me out of trouble.

If you're atter ginning me a bit of wisdom, and all on madam's account, I'm jist the gentleman that h'ars you.

State the case, and h'yar stands I confawmable." "Well, friend," said Nathan, "what I have to advise thee is, that thee stops where thee is, leaving the rest of this matter entirely to me; seeing that, as thee knows nothing of this Injun village, excepting the horse-pound thereof, it will not be safe for thee to enter.

Do thee rest where thee is, and I will spy out the place of the maiden's concealing." "Old feller," said Captain Ralph, "you won't pretend you knows more of the place than me?
You don't go for to say you ever stole a hoss here ?" "Do thee be content, friend," said Nathan, "to know there is not a cabin in all the village that is unbeknown to me: do thee be content with that.
Thee must not go near the pound, until thee knows for certain the maid thee calls madam can be saved.

Truly, friend, it may be we cannot help her to-night, but may do so to-morrow night." "I see what you're up to," said Ralph: "and thar's no denying it war a natteral piece of nonsense to steal a hoss, afo' madam war ready to ride him.
