Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Elder´s People I S´pose you heered Steve Manners is back ag´in, Marthy," said the caller, a little, dark woman, bristling with life and spirit, and alive to the tips of her hair. Steve Manners had once said of her that she would have been hung for a witch two hundred years ago. "Yes," said Marthy, a long, lean woman, looking in her gray gingham like the shadow of some one else. "´A bird o´ the air shell carry the voice an´ that which hath wings shell tell the matter,´ an´ ev´ry dog in town knows it, soon´s he´s come. Elder Perry ses thet w´enever things gits runnin´ to his mind in this perrish in comes Steve Manners an´ his dog an´ upsets the hull bilin´," continued Marthy, lifting her foot from the treadle and stopping the hum of her wheel. "Lemme see. It´s mos´ twenty year, ain´t it, sence Steve fust come tellin´ abeout w´at he called life? I was jes´ startin´ out tailorin´ an´ nussin´?" "There did n´t seem ter be a mite o´ harm in the feller, though, as I rekerlek," said Marthy, smoothing down her soft gray hair with both hands.
