called him a little rascal, and dapped him roundly on his back, but
she never once kicked him.

let me beat my boy if he had done any thing wrong.
Mr. Wurrs—Well, Mrs. Page, you think you have dose nothing

done right in trying to prevent him, without violence, from M-
using the donkey; and if you had given information here, sap.

injury ; and, under these circumstances, you must find satisfactory
bail for assaulting the boy.
