A few posts are set in the ground, and a single length cut from the first tree felled produces boards enough for the walls and roof of a cabin; all the rest the lumberman makes is for sale, and he is speedily independent. No gardener or haymaker is more sweetly perfumed than these rough mountaineers while engaged in this business, but the havoc they make is most deplorable.

And when they hesitated and were for sparing them, being large and goodly trees, he, taking up an ax himself, felled the greatest and most beautiful of them.

He knew the sea well, and it would be pleasant to steer on it one to whom it was all new all, all. "Dear little girl," he said, "I don't suppose she has ever even thought of love." He was not in love with her, but he meant to be.
