w you treat me! I shall go 'ome. Why didn't you come aht the other night?' 'Yer told me not ter.' She snorted at the ridiculous ineptitude of the reply. 'Why didn't you say nothin' abaht it yesterday?' 'Why, I thought you'd come if I didn't talk on it.' 'Well, I think you're a ---- brute!' She felt very much inclined to cry. 'Come on, Liza, don't tike on; I didn't mean no offence.' And he put his arm round her waist and led her to take their places at the gallery door. Two tears escaped from the corners of her eyes and ran down her nose, but she felt very relieved and happy, and let him lead her where he would. There was a long string of people waiting at the door, and Liza was delighted to see a couple of niggers who were helping them to while away the time of waiting. The niggers sang and danced, and made faces, while the people looked on with appreciative gravity, like royalty listening to de Reské, and they were very generous of applause and halfpence at the end of the performance.
