text_original: It was not long before Dick was bending over the list; and the two men were asking themselves who would better go here, who there, who's the friend of this family, who the friend of that? They called up the priest for the three of his own boys; the Rev. Mr. Pepper, who, in spite of his pacifism, still had kept a gentle heart, for one of his flock. They called up Jake Mulligan, and between them the sad duty was performed.
