"I don't think so" says the father. "But I know that when his father was living there he had only three cows places and an old ass" Then the matchmaker says "Oh! but he bought Dugnan's land since that" "Very well" says the father "But how much money will he be asking," The matchmaker thinks for a while and then says to his wife "Well Lizzie what do you think of that."
