I never ^[[again]] will say one word or let on I heard. Just do my own duty and let all say and do their worst. They may say I am an escaped convict and defraud and do whatever wrong they want I will only teach and let all else alone.

I will never say or act what I do not believe but I can be perfectly still not say anything. What I expect is the only way for women to do. "Be wise as serpents and harmless as doves", if possible.
