"Him and me's chums," my small sister said of the red-squirrel that hung around the log-barn.
That was the English voice again, seemingly out of the heavy air, or out of the storm outside. Jimmie turned quickly and saw his chums nicely tied up. In a moment he turned back to the row of six, without even exchanging a look with his friends. "Who's doin' the talkin'," he asked.

Her father has bought the place and is building a lodge there." "Good lands!" ejaculated Jerry. "Isn't that a coincidence?" Ruth commented.
