But Clara, appealed to, begged to be allowed to remain outside until she was required, and showed such unmistakable nervousness that we finally agreed. "Would a slight noise disturb her?" Mrs. Dane asked. Miss Jeremy thought not, if the circle remained unbroken, and Mrs. Dane considered. "Bring me my stick from the hall, Horace," she said.
The water of the Fork, clear and pure, rippled noisily over a stony bed between two unbroken walls of ice. The civil officers of the Territory fixed their quarters in a little nook in the wood above the military camp. The Colonel, anticipating a change of encampment, determined not to construct quarters of logs or sod for the army.
