My guide, whose heart was evidently more in the hunting than in his present business, became half wild with excitement at the sight of these izzards.
Our course now lay through a kind of vertical gully nearly filled with snow. Up this we scrambled, taking advantage of the hardness of the snow to make it our path. Above us rose tremendous precipices, terminating in jagged peaks, on which my guide with his practised eye discerned a herd of izzards.
It was the largest herd he had seen that year, and, with many a sacré, he bemoaned his fate that he should be without his rifle; though I endeavoured to convince him that there was nothing to regret, as he could not at the same time hunt izzards and conduct me to the Brêche.
A bright sun unfelt, however, at this great elevation poured down a flood of light on the far-stretching glaciers and snow-fields, on which we discerned izzards, which seemed, when in motion, like points moving in space. These, and a few eagles, were the only living things that met our eye.
"But they would be under the necessity of having it, since their guests call for it." "So they do; and if there were no goats, our izzard-venison would sell at a higher price." "How?" demanded Ivan, puzzled to make out the connection between goats and izzard-venison. "Goats and izzards are too much alike, monsieur that is, after being skinned and cut up.
It was not until near 1840 that the Middletons and Izzards and other wealthy and aristocratic Southern families were tempted to Newport by the climate and the facilities it offered for bathing, shooting and boating. A boarding-house or two sufficed for the modest wants of the new-comers, first among which stood the Aquidneck, presided over by kind Mrs. Murray.
