Description
the day, abhorred devil, in which you first saw
light! Cursed (although I curse myself) be the hands that formed you!
You have made me wretched beyond expression. You have left me no power
to consider whether I am just to you or not. Begone! Relieve me from
the sight of your detested form.”
“Thus I relieve thee, my creator,” he said, and placed his hated hands
before my eyes, which I flung from me with violence; “thus I take from
thee a sight which you abhor. Still thou canst listen to me

he would advertise Jim in the St. Louis and
New Orleans papers; and when he mentioned the St. Louis ones it give me
the cold shivers, and I see we hadn't no time to lose. So Tom said, now
for the nonnamous letters.
“What's them?” I says.
“Warnings to the people that something is up. Sometimes it's done one
way, sometimes another. But there's always somebody spying around that
gives notice to the governor of the castle. When Louis XVI. was going
to light out of the Tooleries, a servant-girl done it. It's a very good
way, and so is the nonnamous letters. We'll use them both. And it's
usual for the prisoner's mother to change clothes with him, and she
stays in, and he slides out in her clothes. We'll do that, too.”
“But looky here, Tom, what do we want to _warn_ anybody for that
something's up? Let them find it out for themselves--it's their
lookout.”
“Yes, I know; but you can't depend on them. It's the way they've acted
from the very start--left us to do _everything_. They're so confiding
and mullet-headed they don't take notice of nothing at all. So if we
don't _give_ them notice there won't be nobody nor nothing to interfere
with us, and so after all our hard work and trouble this escape 'll go
off perfectly flat; won't amount to nothing--won't be nothing _to_ it.”
“Well, as for me, Tom, that's the way I'd like.”
“Shucks!” he says, and looked disgusted. So I says:
“But I ain't going to make no complaint. Any way that suits you suits
me. What you going to do about the servant-girl?”
“You'll be her. You slide in, in the middle of the night, and hook that
yaller girl's frock.”
“Why, Tom, that 'll make trouble next morning; because, of course, she
prob'bly hain't got any but that one.”
“I know; but you don't want it but fifteen minutes, to carry the
nonnamous letter and shove it under the front door.”
“All right, then, I'll do it; but I could carry it just as handy in my
own togs.”
“You wouldn't look like a servant-girl _then_, would you?”
“
