"I suppose when you were a kid the Jesuits taught you chants and so on," said the Colonel, kindly. "Kaiomi," answered Nicholas after reflection. "You can sing, can't you?" asks O'Flynn. "Sing? No, me dance!" The Boy roared with delight. "Why, yes, I never thought of that. You fellows do the songs, and Nicholas and I'll do the dances." Mac glowered angrily.
"What!" gasps the horrified Mac, "Father Brachet has got a family?" "Famly?" inquired Nicholas. "Kaiomi"; and he shook his head uncertainly. "You say Father Brachet has got boys, and" as though this were a yet deeper brand of iniquity "girls?" Nicholas, though greatly mystified, nodded firmly. "I suppose he thinks away off up here nobody will ever know. Oh, these Jesuits!"
Him heap good coat," he wound up unemotionally, and proceeded to put it on. "And the other white man what became of him?" Nicholas shrugged: "Kaiomi," though it was plain he knew well enough the other lay under the Yukon ice. "And that that was the end of the fellows who went by jeering at us!" "We'd better not crow yet," said Mac.
Nicholas paused an instant with Kaviak on his shoulder. "Kaiomi no savvy." "You not seen him to-day?" "No. He no up ?" With the swaddled child he made a gesture up the river towards the white camp. "No, he came down this morning to meet you." Nicholas shook his head, and went on gathering up the furs. As he and Mac came out, Andrew was undoing the last fastening that held the canvas to the stakes.
The men with him said 'Kaiomi' to everything I asked, and that means 'No savvy. Says he'll teach me he'll teach all of us how to snow-shoe." "We know how to snow-shoe." "Oh, I mean on those long narrow snow-shoes that make you go so fast you always trip up! He'll show us how to steer with a pole, and how to make fish-traps and and everything." Mac began measuring out some tea.
