"You cut ercrost the medder to Peter Boneses' an' fetch 'em over with all their grit an' guns an' ammunition." Solomon found John Irons and five of his sons and three of his daughters digging potatoes and pulling tops in a field near the house. The sky was clear and the sun shining warm. Solomon called Irons aside and told him of the approaching Indians. "What are we to do?" Irons asked.
You've got in bad comp'ny, but ye ain't done nothin' but steal a pair o' wimmen. If ye behave proper from now on, ye'll be sent hum. "We didn't have no more trouble with them. I put one o' Boneses' boys on a hoss an' hustled him up the valley fer help. The wimmen captives was bawlin'. I tol' 'em to straighten out their faces an' go with Jack an' his father down to Fort Stanwix.
They're wery poor awful poor are the Boneses. The Brute still keeps up a fiction of a market-garden and a dairy the latter bein' supplied by a cow and a pump but it don't pay, and the business in the city, whatever it may be, seems equally unprofitable, for their town house is not a desirable residence."
If they've been treated proper, it's the same as proved. Ye let 'em out o' the bear trap which it has often happened. But you hear to me, when they go off this way it's to kill an' grab an' hustle back with the booty. They won't stop at butcherin'!" "I'm afraid my folks are in danger," said the boy as he changed color. "Er mebbe Peter Boneses' 'cordin' to the way they go.
Now, as I've a great regard for aunt Georgie, and have lost a good deal of my hatred of the Brute, and find myself fonder than ever of Tottie I beg her pardon, of Merry I've been rather intimate indeed, I may say, pretty thick with the Boneses ever since; and as I am no longer a burden to the Brute can even help 'im a little he don't abominate me as much as he used to.
