Dr. Palmer succeeded Dr.

Satisfied by such assurance given by the sager ones of the party, the Rangers remain inside the hut, on the roof of which the rain dashes down, without experiencing any keen pangs of impatience. Some of them even jest their jokes having allusion to the close quarters in which they are packed, and other like trifles incidental to the situation. Walt Wilder for a while gives way to this humour.

"Why, thin, the differ atween them is this, Dinny, that black is let me see why that black is not red nor yallow nor brown nor green nor purple not cut-beard nor a heather color nor a grog-ram" "Nor a white?"

When the dance was at an end, Ichabod was attracted to a knot of the sager folks, who, with Old Van Tassel, sat smoking at one end of the piazza, gossiping over former times, and drawing out long stories about the war. This neighbourhood, at the time of which I am speaking, was one of those highly favoured places which abound with chronicle and great men.
