a young lady, without coming to the point. The girl's father thought it
time for him to interfere. On the swain's next visit, the father

"Clinton, you've been settin' up with Nellie, an' takin' her to picnics,
an' to church an' buggy-ridin', an' nothin's come of it. So, now,

you to ruffle your shirt. My intentions is honorable--but remote."
