We from below have invited him to join our company; are you all here agreed to that?" "Certainly," said Mark Elwood, in his usual off-hand manner. "Certainly," added Claud, more specifically, "I think we ought to be gratified in such an acquisition to our company." "And you, Codman?" said the hunter, turning inquiringly to the trapper. "It is your turn to speak.
Gaut Gurley, who had been secretly scheming for this post ever since the arrangement which he saw must necessarily create it was agreed on, and who had been insidiously making interest for it, with all the company, except Phillips and Codman, now proposed that the question should be decided by ballot, and without discussion.
"But why do you ask such a question?" "Don't know myself, it's a fact; but I happened to be thinking of things. But say, captain, you haven't been reading any chapters in any strange book yourself, lately, have you?" said Codman, with a queer look. "No, I guess not," replied Elwood, laughingly, though visibly annoyed by the subject. "No?
And Pestler with his violin was not far behind. Everything had now broken loose. At the first note, up jumped Kitty, caught John around the neck, and went whirling around the room. At the second note, up jumped Codman, made a dive for Polly, missed her in the mix-up and, grabbing Mrs. Digwell instead, went sailing down the room as if he had done nothing else all his life.

"Well, Codman, I suppose we must give in," responded the hunter.
For, at the meeting they then held, Mark Elwood found among the furs a beaver-skin, that he could swear was of his own taking, from a careless slit he remembered to have made in the skinning. Codman found another, which he could safely identify by a mangled ear which was caught in one end of the trap, while the tail was caught in the other.
