 He snatched on his hat and, exclaiming What
afamily!
Strikes me thatsjust what Flanagan
wants.
Now a babble in every languageunder the sun rose
from it.
Och, Ill bide nae taunts frae the blackguard,
McFarlane told hiswife. Zat man, he dont know much yet, Fritz said.
For the prudent husbandry of thelast five years was
just then coming to a rich fruition.
But Dirk put hisarm round her and said not to take
on like that, and said The boysare here.
He flicked over a fewpages in a bulky
file.
She was just standing in a corner waiting for the
Chinaman tocome.
Itd rub some of thatdamn-fool shine off them to do
a days honest work in a draftingyard.
They would manage things differently now they had a
chance.
For the prudent husbandry of thelast five years was
just then coming to a rich fruition.
Felix is only too pleased to have you do whatever

Cabell put a handful of sheepon the barren ridge.
He hurried to Maurice Peppiotts office in Queen Street.
Roads were to belaid down, railways

Flanagans contented laugh followed him downstairs.
Cabell jumped indignantly to his feet, but he met Flanagansmocking eyes and bit his
lip.
Och aye, the gentlemens unco canny this
mornin.
Martha Darvall and Ludmilla ran to help him and
hastened him offthe veranda.
Theyd have eaten that fellow in the collar there
alive. Och, Ill bide nae taunts frae the blackguard, McFarlane told hiswife.
Flanagans contented laugh followed him downstairs.
One day next time I make one fortune maybe I .
McFarlane chuckled andthe men grinned at Cabell with malicious expectation. The lags
brought the corn up from the fields in a cart, yoked withchains.
Well now, heres the mans firstapplication for a
lease, February eighteen-fifty. Well, sell ze shovel and walk to Mebourne. Youre
like a breath of youth to me, he chuckled.
She rubbed her tearful eyes and bent closerto her
sewing.
Say, you, Wilhelm Prosser, you have one drink on me
zis afternoon. Theyd have eaten that fellow in the collar there alive.
Even those strangers, his eyes, werepressed to give
a momentary twinkle.
There he was lord of everything and men rushed to
obey when heordered. So Cabell built the first fence on the run.
Ah, haud yer nonsense tongues, McFarlane
interposed.
When we go back home, zen want to come back here.
