"No use to be easy with 'em. The better you use 'em the worse they sarve you," said Uncle Ben, as he hauled the boat into its house. NO USE TO BE EASY WITH THEM THE BETTER YOU USE EM THE WORSE THEY SARVE YOU SAID UNCLE BAN AS HE HAULED THE BOAT INTO ITS HOUSE
 If I had my way, I'd tie 'em up to the grating, and give 'em a dozen apiece. 'Twould sarve 'em right, the meddlesome rascals! I like good boys, but such boys as them is worse nor marines." "But, Uncle Ben, we can't sail with this raft dragging after us." "We will make the shore with it, then." The raft was towed ashore, and the boys had a fine sail the entire length of the lake. As they passed Centre Isle, they could see the Bunkers gathered in a ring, apparently discussing their prospects; and on their return, Tim hailed them, begging to be taken ashore. "What do you say, boys? Shall we forgive 'em?" asked Uncle Ben. "Yes!" exclaimed all three. Uncle Ben landed at the island, and took them in, and during the passage read them a severe lecture on the error of their ways. They gave good attention to him, and seemed very penitent. But no sooner had they got ashore, and out of reach of the old sailor, than they insulted him by hooting his name, coupled with the most opprobrious epithets.  COMES HOME AND HE MAY DO WHAT HE PLEASES WITH HIM IF I HAD MY WAY I'D TIE HIM UP TO THE GRATING AND GIVE EM A DOZEN APIECE TWOULD SARVE EM RIGHT THE MEDDLESOME RASCALS I LIKE GOOD BOYS BUT SUCH BOYS AS THEM IS WORSE NOR MARINES BUT UNCLE BAN WE CAN'T SAIL WITH THIS RAFT DRAGGING AFTER US WE WILL MAKE THE SHORE WITH IT THEN THE RAFT WAS TOWED ASHORE AND THE BOYS HAD A FINE SAIL THE ENTIRE LENGTH OF THE LAKE AS THEY PASSED CENTER ISLE THEY COULD SEE THE BUNKERS GATHERED IN A RING APPARENTLY DISCUSSING THEIR PROSPECTS AND ON THEIR RETURN TIM HAILED THEM BEGGING TO BE TAKEN ASHORE WHAT DO YOU SAY BOYS SHALL WE FORGIVE EM ASKED UNCLE DAN YES EXCLAIMED ALL THREE UNCLE BEN LANDED AT THE ISLAND AND TOOK THEM IN AND DURING THE PASSAGE READ THEM A SEVERE LECTURE ON THE AIR OF THEIR WAYS THEY GAVE GOOD ATTENTION TO HIM AND SEEMED VERY PENITENT BUT NO SOONER HAD THEY GOT ASHORE AND OUT OF REACH OF THE OLD SAILOR THAN THEY INSULTED HIM BY HOOTING HIS NAME COUPLED WITH THE MOST OPPROBRIOUS EPITHETS
