"Hush your mouth! Don't matter who they are, anybody sets foot in

this house's yo' comp'ny, and don't you let me catch you remarkin'

on their ways like you was so high and mighty! Yo' folks might be

better'n the Cunninghams but it don't count for nothin' the way you're

disgracin' 'em- if you can't act fit to eat at the table you can

just set here and eat in the kitchen!"
