Jacob watched him till he had got to some distance. "He has gone," he exclaimed. "He shall not have our Maiden May if I can prevent him." "No fear of that, Jacob.

And as in duty bound the politicians said: "The government will give the matter its most serious consideration." M. Royal and the priests returned to the North-West down-spirited enough, and Mr. Macpherson sailed for England, while the half-breeds were making up their minds to obtain by force the rights which they had failed to obtain through peaceable means and persistent prayer.
Mackenzie did not take up the question of his acting as relief for Dad while the old scout went off to push his arrangements for marrying a sheep ranch, seeing that Reid was depressed and down-spirited and in no pleasant mood.
