Oh, I know, Billy Woods  I know what a temper you've got, and I know you're keeping quiet now simply because you know that's the most exasperating thing you can possibly do. I wouldn't have such a disposition as you've got for the world. OH I KNOW BILLY WOODS I KNOW WHAT A TEMPER YOU'VE GOT AND I KNOW YOU'RE KEEPING QUIET NOW SIMPLY BECAUSE YOU KNOW THAT'S THE MOST EXASPERATING THING YOU CAN POSSIBLY DO I WOULDN'T HAVE SUCH A DISPOSITION AS YOU'VE GOT FOR THE WORLD
old you the whole truth about that, but I don't blame you for not believing me, Peggy--ah, no, not I. There seems to be a curse upon Uncle Fred's money. It brings out the worst of all of us. It has changed even you, Peggy--and not for the better, Peggy. You've become distrustful. You--ah, well, we won't discuss that now. Give me the will, my dear, and I'll burn it before your eyes. That ought to show you, Peggy, that you're wrong." Billy was very white-lipped as he ended, for the Woods temper is a short one. But she had an arrow left for him. "Give it to you! And do you think I'd trust you with it, Billy Woods?" "Peggy!--ah, Peggy, I hadn't deserved that. Be just, at least, to me," poor Billy begged of her. Which was an absurd thing to ask of an angry woman. "Yes, I _do_ know what you'd do with it! You'd take it right off and have it probated or executed or whatever it is they do to wills, and turn me straight out in the gutter. That's just what you're _longing_ to do this very moment. KATHLEEN IF YOU PLEASE BUT YOU'RE WRONG ABOUT THE WILL I'VE TOLD YOU THE WHOLE TRUTH ABOUT THAT BUT I DON'T BLAME YOU FOR NOT BELIEVING ME PEGGY AH NO NOT I THERE SEEMS TO BE A CURSE UPON UNCLE FRED'S MONEY IT BRINGS OUT THE WORST OF ALL OF US IT HAS CHANGED EVEN YOU PEGGY AND NOT FOR THE BETTER PEGGY YOU'VE BECOME DISTRUSTFUL YOU AH WELL WE WON'T DISCUSS THAT NOW GIVE ME THE WILL MY DEAR AND I'LL BURN IT BEFORE YOUR EYES THEN I'LL SHOW YOU PEGGY THAT YOU'RE WRONG BILLY WAS VERY WHITE LIPPED AS HE ENDED FOR THE WOODS TEMPER IS A SHORT ONE BUT SHE HAD AN ARROW LEFT FOR HIM GIVE IT TO YOU AND DO YOU THINK I'D TRUST YOU WITH IT BILLY WOODS PEGGY PEGGY I HADN'T DESERVED THAT BE JUST AT LEAST TO ME POOR BILLY BEGGED OF HER WHICH WAS AN ABSURD THING TO ASK OF AN ANGRY WOMAN YES I DO KNOW WHAT SHE'D DO WITH IT YOU'D TAKE IT RIGHT OFF AND HAVE IT PROBATED OR EXECUTED OR WHATEVER IT IS THEY DO TO WILLS AND TURN ME STRAIGHT OUT IN THE GUTTER THAT'S JUST WHAT YOU'RE LONGING TO DO THIS VERY MOMENT
