"And leave them laughing, Ho! Ho Ho!"--_Robin Goodfellow_.

Notice waka come from the Bishop of di diocese say e dey plan to hold Confirmation for Poppleby for six weeks time. Dis one make Mr Harford happy well well, as e don dey vex say the number of people wey dey take communion dey very small. Before e come, dem dey do Celebration only three times for one year, and na mostly old people dey attend am. To the joy of the Carbonels, the feast dey happen every month after e come; but the first time wey the old people dey there, and everybody dey wait, George Hewlett, the clerk, talk say, when the curate look am for information--

"The alms, sir. Dem dey wait for the money wey dey inside the plate."

"Why, that one suppose dey reserved for sick and distressed."

"Mr Selby, e always dey share am give dem, and Mr Jones wey dey before am, sir. Dem dey expect am."

Mr Harford think say e fit better make e no just disappoint the old people sharp sharp, so e stand for the vestry door dey count heads, and e see two people wey e don already dey surprise to see dey present, wey be Dame Spurrell, wey e don hear dey curse her neighbour with bad bad words, and wey dey claim say she be witch, and Tom Jarrold, wey Hewlett don describe give am as the most wicked old man for the area.

E ask for advice from the churchwardens, Farmers Goodenough and Rawson, wey both agree say dem be bad people, wey no deserve anything, but e dey help to reduce the rates. Then e talk to Captain Carbonel, wey be reverent man, wey dey fear as e hear wetin e hear.
