"Don't bother her with the will, Robert; she won't understand. Tell her about it and give her the letter." "Perhaps that is better, as the legal terms might be confusing. The gist of the matter is this, Miss Doane.
"What kind of a job did they give you at Enterprise?" asked Peter. "I drove a team, me, haulin' logs to the saw-mill," said Poly. "There is plentee work at Fort Enterprise." "The Company's most profitable post," remarked Peter to Ambrose. "They have everything their own way there." The look which accompanied this suggested to Ambrose it would be a good place for Minot & Doane to start a branch.
Thornton; that's jest what they are wanderers. But they won't be wanderers no more; they've found a home." "What do you mean?" "Jest what I said, Mr. Thornton. I mean to give that mother and her baby a home." "I do not understand you at all, Miss Doane; or at least I hope I am mistaken in your meaning." "I talk plain American."
"The circulatin' family story-paper," laughed Drusilla, "Miss Lee." Mrs. Carrington frowned for a moment; then she laughed. "Oh, well, if Sarah knows it, it is no secret in Brookvale. But I am not going away, so her story will have to be revised. What else did she say, Miss Doane?" "Well I jest can't remember all she said but you said jest now you was happy.
Oh, please go away PLEASE. I'll speak to her, Daniel, when I get time; I was going to. But just now I oh, my POOR head!" Daniel made up his mind to telegraph Doane that very afternoon, but he did not. A happening in the household prevented him. Mr. Hapgood was summarily discharged. Azuba was responsible for the affair.

"No; bring them here, John," Mr. Cairns said sharply. "You may go and say that Mrs. Cairns thanks Miss Doane very much for her thoughtfulness in remembering her on her baking day, and that she is sure she will enjoy the doughnuts and the cookies will be given to the children."

The story of that night I knew; but never fully as you have told it to me in your letter. Of what happened after Lancy Doane left the inn, of which you have not written, but promised the writing in your next letter, I think I know as well as yourself. Nay, more, Cousin Dick. There are some matters concerning what followed that night and after, which I know, and you do not know.
"Tell him I'm tellin' the truth!" shouted Eagen at the shaking bank cashier. "You can't get out of it." There was a tense moment. Doane shook his head weakly; he was a picture of guilt. "He got scared I wouldn't go through with the play, sheriff," Eagen continued. "Thought maybe I'd make off with all the kale. So he framed it with Rathburn, an' I caught 'em about to divide it here."
