"Mr.Haverley ain't the man to do that sort of thing without makin' some of his 'rangements p'int that way, an' none of his 'rangements do p'int that way.

If he'd been goin' to git married, he'd told me, you bet, an' we'd laid out the farm work more suitable for a weddin' than it is laid out.

I ain't goin' to believe no word about no weddin' till I git it from somebody better nor Miss Panney.

If he was goin' to marry anybody, he'd be more like to marry that purty little Miss Drane.

She's right here on the spot, an' she ain't pizen proud like them Bannisters.
