Some of the men left their faces exposed, went to sleep in desperate exhaustion, after hours of fruitless warfare, and awoke with eyes all but shut up, and cheeks like dumplings. Others lay down to leeward of the fire and spent the night in a compound experience of blood-sucking and choking.

The grouse you can split and fry, in which case the brown gravy described for the fried deer-steak is just the thing. Or you can boil him.

"Oh, about the leg of mutton! yes, large joints are the best the second day a nice hash, with dumplings; the third, broil the bone your husband is sure to like broiled bones! and then keep the scraps for Saturday's pie; you know, my dear, your father and I were worse off than you when we began. But now we have everything that is handsome about us nothing like management.

Boil it slowly an hour and a half; or more, taking care to skim it. Make a thickening of an ounce and a half of butter, and a large table-spoonful of flour, mixed together with a little of the soup. Then stir it into the pot, adding a large table-spoonful of mushroom catchup, and some small force-meat balls, or little dumplings. Boil the soup half an hour longer.

Drop in a few made dumplings, made like short biscuit, cut out very small. Cook fifteen minutes longer. Thicken the gravy with a little flour moistened with milk. Serve.
