"For England or the next one!" "Nay! But for England!" said the Risaldar, setting the child down on his knee. "And thou too, hot-head. Before a week is past!
"Let him read and tell you if I have spoken the truth." The Indian took the paper and looked at it curiously. Now, unless Applehead or some other hot-head spoiled things, Luck believed that things would smooth down beautifully. There had been some misunderstanding, evidently else the Indiana would never have manifested all this old-fashioned hostility.
