A Son of Hagar

This is a romance book. Before Gubblum Oglethorpe parted with Jabez he tried to undo the mischief he had done. Give us a shako thy daddle, he said, holding out his hand. But Jabez had not forgotten the similitude of the swine ring. He made no response. Dang him for a fool, thought Gubblum. He sas daft as a besom. Then Gubblum remembered with what lavish generosity he had bribed the pot-boy to no purpose. He covert a shilling dammish, he thought; Ill dang his silly head off. Vol. III.
