"Why--yes," hesitatingly replied the rough old hero, who had been sitting upon his horse, moodily looking at his watch lying in his broad palm, and occasionally exhibiting signs of impatience at the length of his more wordy young brother's remarks--"yes, it may be right enough, that you should have your say unless you want to preach some more of your d.a.m.nable tory doctrines to the people.
