"We'll make our way somehow or other through the forest;" and the boat was run with her bow against the yielding bank. "You'll follow me!" As he said this he sprang on shore, or rather on to the trunk of a tree. "All right come along," he exclaimed; "do as I do." The next instant, however, over he went on his nose, and disappeared.
"Now, me dearie," said Mrs Gilmour, replacing her needle and thimble, with the reel of thread, in her little "housewife," and putting that carefully back into her pocket, "sure, we'll have a jollification on our own account as our gentlemen have left us. We'll show them that we can do without them, sure, when we like."
No, Longstreth, we've got to settle things to-night." "Well, we can settle what Ray's concerned in, right now," replied Longstreth, rising. "Come on; we'll ask her. See where you stand."

"We can get grazing permits on the Forest now right in the best grass valleys. Each year we'll throw some cows up there to hold our rights. There'll always be good grass on the Forest Reserves for they won't permit overstocking.
I suppose we'll not see each other very often after you leave here. I'll be leaving your aunt's in a few days. My my people are coming home." "Oh! You'll be glad of that." "Yes." And again, "Yes."
