I followed Sieur de la Salle by forest trail to the Straits, and planned to return that way, but 'tis a foot journey." "Not fitted for such a party as this?" "Only as you trust to your rifles for food, bearing what packs we might on our backs. With the lady the trail is scarcely possible." "As to the lady I will make my own decision. Besides, our course is decided. We go to St. Ignace.
"Well, there was not much to be done with him; the 'pic' had weakened the system, and after so many years of incarceration in a sleeping-room the chest and lungs were delicate; hence the congestion and cause of death. Well, well let me see I remember your brother twenty-three years ago when I first came to St. Ignace.
Even the rude trappers, who came to trade at regular intervals, revered him, and lived like good Christians while at the mission, so as not to counteract his teaching by their lawless example. Here Père Ignace was growing old, and even this grasshopper of a spiritual charge was becoming a burden. His superior, at Montreal, understood this, and sent him an assistant.
He was tattered and barefooted. Under the dirt his pallid face looked deathly, but fire blazed in the dark eyes, the fire of love. "Mother!" he cried. "Don't you know me?" The Princess gave a cry, and clasped her son in a passionate embrace. "Ignace!" she cried; and "Ignace!" over and over, while she patted him and felt of him as though to assure herself that it was not a dream.
"I am a Methodist minister, spending some time at St. Ignace, and yesterday I encountered a lady, who, I believe, lives here. At least, I " The other cut him short. "Ringfield? That is your name? Anneau, champ no the other way, Champanneau. We have not this name with us. Yet, I do not know, it may be a good name."
"Nine, then. It was the year of the great snow. Does she does my sister ever go to see it?" "I cannot tell, m'sieu. She is not in St. Ignace often, and m'sieu knows that when ma'amselle goes abroad it is to Montreal and to the theatre." "But you you know about it, if it lives, if it is well, and has has its mind?" "It lives yes, truly, m'sieu it is never ill and it has its mind!"
"Oh, their opinion!" came from Ringfield with a smile. "Well, even here, even in St. Ignace, there is a standard, you see." "Of manners? Yes, I suppose so. And of morality, let us hope." "You are not certain? What have you found out, what departure from the standard in other places? Mon Dieu! I hope not you are thinking of Montreal and the Hotel-Champlain!"
The two sergeants James Blaise and Roger Barlow went to a distant part of the intricate trench system, while the two corporals, Robert Dalton and Ignace Pulinski and Sergeant Franz Schnitzel were together in a ditch near the middle of the barbed wire entanglements.
Very gently the good Père Ignace explained that Romish priests were so nearly in the kingdom of heaven that the question of marrying and giving in marriage was not for them to consider. The Black Beaver went home, told no one of his visit, and for several days indulged in the worst drunken spree of which he was capable.
In the course of his hunting excursions he had either accidentally, or designedly, found his way to the post of Mr. Stuart, and had been prevailed upon to ascend the Columbia, and "try his luck" at Astoria. Ignace Shonowane, the Iroquois hunter, was a specimen of a different class.
