The Englishman belonged to the Hudson's Bay Company, but they have heard nothing down here at Fort Ste. Anne." "If he saves the Company's man, that will make up the man he lost for them, eh you think that, eh?" Pierre's eyes had a curious ironical light. "I do not care for the Company," she said. "John Marcey's life was his own." "Good!" he added quickly, and his eyes admired her.
