"Kate Seton," she cried, "I demand your story." Then she went on melodramatically, "You've said too much or too little. You've got to tell it right here and now, or or I'll never speak to you again never," she finished up feebly. Kate smiled. "What a dreadful threat!" Then she turned to Bill. "Mr. Bryant, I s'pose I'll have to tell her. You don't know what an awful tempered woman it is.
His horse finished drinking and moved a step nearer his master, where he stood with head lowered, water dripping from his lip, body inert. But presently he pricked his ears and turning his head toward the other bank gave a low whinny. Bryant got to his feet. The two women he had beheld at a distance had now reached the ford.

Meanwhile, the burden of work and the needs of the project would afford sufficient occupation for his mind. Christmas came. Bryant had ordered that labour cease for twenty-four hours, as the gruelling fight of weeks had worn down the spirit of the men.
Like Lowell and Bryant, Irving was first devoted to the law, but his devotion was not of the quality that consumes. He soon strayed into pleasanter paths.
