" Ye never did see in all yer days sech a mad crowd as that thar crowd around that tree, but they didn't stop none to sw'ar. The dogs was arter the 'coon, an' arter him we went too. He put ^ur the edge of the woods, which looked queer, fur a coon never wUl go out into the open if he kin help it ; but the dogs was so hot arter him that he couldn't run fur, and he was treed ag'in in less than five minutes. This time he was in a tall hick'ry-tree, right on the edge o' the woods ; and it wa'n't a v...ery thick tree, nuther, so the niggers they jist tuk ther* axes, but afore they could make a single crack, ole Haskins he runs at 'em an' pushes 'em away.
" ' Don't ye touch that thar tree ! ' he hollers. ' That hick'ry marks my line ! ' An' sure enough, that was the tree with the surveyors' cuts on it, that marked the place where the line took a corner that run atween Haskinses farm and Widder Thorp's. He know'd the tree the minute he seed it, an' so did I, fur I carried the chain for the surveyors when they laid off the line ; an' we could all see the cut they'd blazed on it, fur it was fresh yit, an' it was gittin' to be daylight now, an' we could see things plain.
