"Then I'll tell you what I will do. I'll first go over to the
deacon's and try to collect something. Afterward I will call on Mr.
Tudor."

"It is your father's place to do it, but he has no business faculty,
and could not accomplish anything. Go, then, Grant, but remember one

"What is that, mother?"

"You have a quick temper, my son. Don't allow yourself to speak

Tudor's bill is a just one, and he ought to have his money."

"I'll do the best I can, mother."
