When the Acadian tried to question Edie more closely, her answers became irrelevant, which was probably due to the deficiencies of Monsieur Breboeuf's English. Pierre kept indoors most of the morning, as the little one would not let him out of her sight, and he dared not be seen with her.
"Why, where did the baby learn her English?" asked the soldier in a tone of surprise. "You never taught her, I'll be bound." "Her mother taught her. Her mother speaks the English better than you yourself," was Breboeuf's ready reply. Later in the day that soldier suddenly remembered that the good wife Breboeuf did not speak a word of English, and he was properly mystified.
The humor of Jean Breboeuf's very gravity appealed so strongly to his older comrades that they broke out into laughter, and so all fell again to their tasks, in sheer light-heartedness forgetting the superstitions of their class. Thus at length the party took ship again, and in time made the head of the great bay within whose arms they had been for some time encamped.
