Jed: "yea, ah' guess ah' did".
Pearl: "What'd they pay ya' fer it"?
Jed: "Now Pearl, you know that that ol' swamp ain't worth shucks".
Pearl "Jed Clammpet; ya got slickered an' yore 'shamed ta admit it"!
Granny: "Thets what ah tol' him".
Jed: "Okay I'll tell ya! Thet Mr. Brewster said he'll pay me between twenty-fave an' a hunnert".
Pearl: "Twenty five an' a hunert? Dollars"?
Jed: "I know thet don' soun' like much, but he said he'll pay me in some new kin' o' dollars".
Pearl: "New kin o'...Jed they ain't no new kin' o' dollars"!
