'`But I am afraid old Chippy willna be as gentle wi' the men as he was before." He looked at her intently. "Not tae the men or ye husband, Teddy. I'll' help ye, Lucy, but I canna guarantee things will run sae sweet as they did before I left!" "You will have my full support, Mr. Chisholm, that 1 promise you. And you shall have the last word above anybody else, including my husband, .Teddy!" "Thank ye, Lucy. That is all I want tae hear. The mill will be humming and back in business tomorrow frae sure."

"I've been asked by Mrs. Murdoch tae take charge of the mill again. So we will start where I left off, with only one change. No man will do anything unless I tell him. REDTREES by Don Campbell If ye no agree wi' that laddies, there's the door," he said, pointing to the exit with the stem of his old clay pipe. When the mill was running, Teddy Murdoch came up to Chippy. It was the first time he, had spoken to him since he had caused him to be replaced by Adam Simpson. "I. didna like what ye said, Chippy. When ye spoke, ye looked right at me and it seemed tae the men that ye even were the bos over me!" "And so I am laddie. What I said tae the men, I am saying tae you. Ye'il do as I tell ye, or ye'll gae out the ,door," Chippy said sternly. "And by the way, when ye address me at work, ye will call me mister. Aye, in future, I'll be Mr. Chishom tae you!"
