brick up steep ladder or three story build

"Ah, Tim, it's msself has y mans pair o.
legs under me. I could pack yees on top o.
the load"
"Ill bet ye tin dollars We can't"
"It's a whack."

hod and Pat started up the ladder with his
load. Near the top round one Of the rungs
Of the ladder broke out with the heavy
weight, and 1t looked as though both must be
dashed to the ground and killed; but Pat
clutched the ladder, held fast, clanbered
with all his might and finally landed his load
on the upper platform. ~-
