These stood conspicuously in his seat in the Pullman, where he held a daily reception to all the porters on the train. True to his orders, he never mentioned Enoch's name in connection with his tale of the Canyon, but his own adventures lost nothing by that. Enoch did not wire the exact time of his arrival in Washington, as he wished no one to meet the train.
Enoch's friends commented to him freely on his temerity in deliberately drawing Brown on, but Enoch only smiled and shrugged his shoulders, while Curly's statement lay unopened in his drawer. But underneath his calm, the still raw wound of Brown's earlier attack tingled as it awaited the rubbing in of the salt. Finally, one morning, Charley laid a Brown paper on Enoch's desk.
The healthful influences of Christianity are immeasurably more beautiful when manifested in the joys of family and home life, or in the discharge of honest trade and commerce, than in the introspective gloom of the recluse, or the ceremonial round of the ascetic. It is remarkable that the record states that Enoch's walk with God lasted "three hundred years after the birth of Methusaleh."
"I never had anything of the sort before this trip, but I've been troubled this way a dozen times lately. It only lasts for a minute." "But in that minute," Enoch's voice was grave, "you might fall down a mountain or out of the boat." "Oh, I don't get it that bad! And anyhow, I haven't gone off alone since these things began. When we get to El Tovar I'll try to locate a doctor."
All the folks ran out of the Lady's House, to see what on airth was the matter on Uncle Enoch's plantation they thought there was actilly a rebellion there; but when they listened awhile, and heerd it over and over again, they took the hint, and returned a larfin in their sleeves. Says they, Master Enoch Slick, he upsides with Missus this hitch any how.
If I may state my intellectual position I am, so far as concerns things purely terrestrial, somewhat in the position which Enoch occupied spiritually!" This was a poser to me. I could not at the moment recall Enoch's appositeness, so I had to ask a simple question, though I felt that by so doing I was lowering myself in the eyes of the lunatic. "And why with Enoch?" "Because he walked with God."
"And so," said Enoch, "returning to the answer to your original question, I have found it hard to keep to any sort of fine idealism, partly because of my own inward struggles and partly because politics is a vile game anyhow." "We Americans," Diana lifted her chin and looked into Enoch's eyes very directly, "feel that at least one politician has played a clean game.
Suddenly Crow Wing jogged his elbow. A glance passed between them. Each understood the other's intention. The Indian fired, his ball entering just above the buck's breast and ploughing slantingly upward through the throat. With a snort of terror the buck swerved to one side and might have gotten away had not Enoch's shot found a more vulnerable spot behind the foreleg.
"Well, whatever I am, words fail me utterly when I try to describe the appeal of your beauty." "Enoch," there was a note of protest in Diana's voice, "you aren't going to make love to me on this trip, are you?" Enoch's voice expressed entire astonishment. "Why certainly I am, Diana!" "You'll make it very hard for me!" sighed Diana.
The Long-guns cannot get the Six Nations to fight the red-coats. And the friends of my white brother will be beaten. They will become the squaws of the red-coats and of the great King across the sea. So my people will go north and join the red-coats." He shook Enoch's hand gravely. "Crow Wing and Harding been brothers; but when they meet again be enemies. Umph?"
