"We hev settled, an' th' lan' 's goin' t' be worth money," broke in her father. She put up her hand. "We got to go, if he comes. But" she arose wearily "if he didn't offer pay for our improvements, how could we go, or get through the winter, or build again next spring? Our money's gone." "Look a-here, Dallas," began her father, crossly, "they ain't no use t' worry th' way you do. Winter is clost.
