Not a man dissented. They were content to abide by the word of their chieftain.
"He never hed any common sense to spare, even when he was a young one," remarked Mrs. Wiley; "and I don't see as all the 'cademy education his father throwed away on him has changed him much." And with this observation she rose from the table and went to the sink. "Steve ain't nobody's fool," dissented the old man; "but he's kind o' daft about the river.
