I'se found Miss Ellis, I has, an' I feels like singin' 'Glory Hallelujah.' Does ye know me, lady?
Does you 'member shaky ole darky, way down in Virginny?
You teached him de way, an' he's tried to walk dar ever sence.

Say, does you know ole Sam ?" and the dim eyes looked eagerly into Alice's face.
She did remember him, and for a moment seemed speechless with surprise, then, stooping beside him, she took his shriveled hand and pressed it between her own, asking how he came there, and if Hugh had always been his master.
"You 'splain, Miss Adah.

You speaks de dictionary better than Sam," the old man said, and thus appealed to, Adah told what she knew of Sam's coming into Hugh's possession.
"He buy me just for kindness, nothing else, for Sam ain't wo'th a dime, but Massah Hugh so good.

I prays for him every night, and I asks God to bring you and him together.

Miss Ellis will like Massah Hugh much, so much, and Massah Hugh like Miss Ellis.
