“She must speed up. This is important business. The amount involved is not so much, but I do love to make good. It’s part of my religion, Bel. And my religion has so precious few parts that if I fail in the observance of any of them it makes a big hole in my performances. Now we don’t want to end a life full of holes, so we must get there with this stuff, not because it’s worth the exertion in dollars and cents, but because these men patronize us steadily and expect us to fill orders, even by telegraph. Hustle, Betsy!” (Harvester 73)
