"But you have done your full duty, Mr.
"Cousin Egbert's man," repeated Mrs. Effie, a little ostentatiously, I thought. "Poor Egbert's so dependent on him quite helpless without him." Cousin Egbert muttered sullenly to himself as he assisted me with the bags. Then he straightened himself to address them. "Won him in a game of freeze-out," he remarked quite viciously.

"But we are to understand that if we do not accept your terms, it's a freeze-out?" "You are to understand that we want to make the best arrangement possible for all parties in interest."
General Carr was ordered to follow with supplies on Penrose's trail and to overtake him as soon as possible. I was particularly anxious to catch up with Penrose's command, as my old friend, "Wild Bill," was among his scouts. For the first three days we followed the trail easily.
