Joathem had been thinking over fine
speeches which he meant to utter when
opportunity should be given by the
withdrawal of the old folks. But when

his throat and he twirled his hat more
industriously than ever. But Tibilha
Twistleton had more presence Of mind
and after enjoying his embarrassment
for awhile, she opened her mouth and
asked him what made him SO dumb?
"Upon that hint he spake." Any
