CHAPTER IX
3/18

"Isn't it just about the ridiculousest thing all round ?" he said, with a feeble chuckle.

"First YOU nearly kill me before you know I am Low's father; then I'm just spoilin' to kill him before I know he's my son; then that god-forsaken fool Jack Brace mistakes you for Nellie and Nellie for you.
Ain't it just the biggest thing for the boys to get hold of?
But we must keep it dark until after I marry Nellie, don't you see?
Then we'll have a good time all round, and I'll stand the drinks.

Think of it, Teresha! You don' no me, I do' no you, nobody knowsh anybody elsh.

I try kill Lo'.

Lo' wants kill Nellie.
