He took the pail to Jakie and he saw the seraphic smile fade from his face and an unpleasant glitter creep into his eyes. "It is the omelet fich you furnish, yes? The six eggs, they will not make the pudding. The omelet I do not perceive yet the desirableness of the omelet. And the juvenile hen yes?" "Aw, they wouldn't sell no chickens."
Thirst was calling Happy Jack; he heeded the summons and disappeared, leaving the new cook to his own devices. So, it would seem, did every other member of the Flying U. Weary had been told that Miss Satterly was in town, and he forgot all about Jakie in his haste to find her.
Finally grandpa and Jakie went off in the wagon and grandma also disappeared, but soon returned, dressed for a trip to the Fort, and explained that she had heard that Georgia was sick and she would take me back and bring her in my place. I had known from the beginning that I was to stay only a little while, yet I was woefully disturbed at having my enjoyment so abruptly terminated.
The forest paled with the first tinge of dawn. They straightened up cautiously. "I think we'd better leave this trail, Jakie," Lewis said. "We'll strike right east, for the river. We can't get lost now." The sun rose, and they were still trudging fast, and no Indians had followed them. The Indians had been fooled nicely.
"What's gadding, Pop?" asked Master Jakie, the goulash having ceased to chain his interest. "Well, she wanted her job back and I gave it to her, and glad to get her back again. There's class to that girl. She's the sort of girl I want in the place. Don't seem quite to have so much get-up in her as she used to... seems kind of quieted down... but she's got class, and I'm glad she's back.
You do as I say, Jakie. When they get near, we'll hide and let 'em pass us. That's the way." They hurried, but they kept listening. At what he thought ought to be the right time when the voices and the twig-crackings were louder Lewis grasped Jacob's arm. "Now! Into the brush on this side, quick! No noise!" They hid in a good place.
Sometimes the things he did in the house were what we call mischief because they annoy us, such as hammering the woodwork to pieces, tearing bits out of the leaves of books, working holes in chair seats, or pounding a cardboard box to pieces. But how is a poor little bird to know what is mischief? Many things which Jakie did were very funny.

He was subdued, was Jakie, and his soft, brown eyes were humble whenever they met the eyes of Happy Jack. His smile was infrequent and fleeting, and his voice more deprecating than ever. Aside from these minor changes everything seemed the same as before the sheepmen had stopped at camp.
You just wait: You'll be homesick for a sight of that fat, bald-headed, cranky old Patsy bouncing along on the mess-wagon and swearing in Dutch at his horses, before you're through. If you're not so completely gone over to Jakie that you will eat nothing but what he has cooked, come on up to the house.
