Get out the plate.
Sir, as you order. I have almost got every thing ready .
Continuation.
Coachman, drive the south road, I will go as far as Mr. ______’s garden.
Sir, there is no road to that garden; the road is stopped up.
Why is it stopped? How long has it been stopped? Have you seen it?
Sir, about five days ago the drain of the road in front of the garden brake. They are now repairing it; therefore the road is stopped.
Very well, go up to it.
Coachman, why are the horses so faint?
Sir, they are not faint; they are somewhat lazy on account of the hot weather.
No. I suppose you don’t pay attention to all this business.
The horses don't get their proper quantity of food, that's the reason of their being weak.
To-day, when I get home, I will examine well into that matter; make yourself easy.
Sir, what is the fault of your slave? There are other servants over this work; there is the groom and the grass-cutter.
Well, is true they are; but you are the head of all. What? it is to be supposed that they don’t mind you?
