"How much?"

"Twenty-five dollars," answered the boy, knowing that part of the
money borrowed must go in other quarters. "Will that be
satisfactory?"

"That's more like!" said Tudor, calming down. "Ef you'll pay that
I'll give you a leetle more time on the rest. Do you want anything
this mornin'? I've got some prime butter just come in."

"I'll call for some articles this afternoon, Mr. Tudor. Here are the
eight dollars. Please credit us with that sum."

"Well, I've accomplished something," said Grant to himself as he
plodded homeward.
