I have nothing to prevent me from starting at once if you desire to have me.

A telegram addressed to me at the office of the Trust Company will reach me promptly.
"Yours very truly, "JOHN K.LENOX." "Wa'al," said David, looking over his glasses at his sister, "what do you think on't ?" "The' ain't much brag in't," she replied thoughtfully.
"No," said David, putting his eyeglasses back in their case, "th' ain't no brag ner no promises; he don't even say he'll do his best, like most fellers would.

He seems to have took it fer granted that I'll take it fer granted, an' that's what I like about it.

Wa'al," he added, "the thing's done, an' I'll be lookin' fer him to-morrow mornin' or evenin' at latest." Mrs.Bixbee sat for a moment with her large, light blue, and rather prominent eyes fixed on her brother's face, and then she said, with a slight undertone of anxiety, "Was you cal'latin' to have that young man from New York come here ?" "I hadn't no such idee," he replied, with a slight smile, aware of what was passing in her mind.

"What put that in your head ?" "Wa'al," she answered, "you know the' ain't scarcely anybody in the village that takes boarders in the winter, an' I was wonderin' what he would do." "I s'pose he'll go to the Eagle," said David.
