"Me like very much," was the reply. "Me glad find father, brother. All good." He paused a moment, and then added, "A-lee-lah's father, mother be dead. A-lee-lah alone. A-lee-lah did say not go. Me promise come back soon." Mr. Wharton was silent. He was thinking what it was best to say. After waiting a little, William said, "Father, me not remember what is English for squaw." "Woman," replied Mr.
