Another row? I thought we had had enough for a week.\u201d\r\n\r\n\u201cAnd on Sunday morning, Dick!\u201d said the mother. \u201cI wouldn\u2019t.\u201d\r\n\r\nAnne looked up, amused at this latter declaration.\r\n\r\n\u201cNever mind, Margaret,\u201d said her husband. \u201cWhat was it about, boys?\u201d\r\n\r\n\u201cOh, it wasn\u2019t much of a row. It was only a scrimmage,\u201d said Dick. \u201cNed said King James cut off Raleigh\u2019s head because he would smoke tobacco. Did you ever hear such nonsense?\u201d\r\n\r\n65\u201cBut Aunt Anne told me King James wrote a book against smoking,\u2014didn\u2019t you, aunt?\u201d urged the smaller lad.\r\n\r\n\u201cAnd I said it was ridiculous,\u201d cried Dick.\r\n\r\n\u201cAnd Jack he up and said it wasn\u2019t, because if he was a king, and people didn\u2019t do as he wanted, he would cut off their heads, like that,\u201d said Ned, knocking off the end of an egg, by way of illustration.\r\n\r\n\u201cAnd so we had a melley,\u201d remarked Jack. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t much, and that\u2019s all there was of it. I don\u2019t see why people make such a fuss.\u201d\r\n\r\n\u201cSuppose you let this suffice for the day, you rascals,\u201d said Mr. Lyndsay <a style=\"color:#333333;text-decoration:none\" href=\"http:\/\/partnernet.hktb.com\/sea\/en\/e_marketplace\/index.html\">Tour products<\/a>\r\n.\r\n\r\n\u201cYes, sir.\u201d\r\n\r\n\u201cAnd it wasn\u2019t Raleigh who brought tobacco to England, was it, Aunt Anne?\u201d said Ned. \u201cI told Dick it was Hawkins, and he wouldn\u2019t believe me. I saw it in\u2014\u201d\r\n\r\n\u201cWhere?\u201d\r\n\r\nNed hesitated. His habit of lying on his stomach on the floor in the long winter afternoons, with some monstrous quarto, was matter for unending chaff on the part of the twins.\r\n","type":"rich"}
