"The thing may be all wrong to others, but if it's right to yourself that's it mais oui! If he comes," he added "if he comes back, think of him as well as Marcey. Marcey is sleeping what does it matter? If he is awake, he has better times, for he was a man to make another world sociable. Think of Laforce, for he has his life to live, and he is a man to make this world sociable.
To get used to a thought, to have it so near her, that if the man if Laforce himself came, she would have herself schooled to endure the shadow and the misery of it all? Ah, that was it!
"That is the thing. Then, do not forget that Marcey took his life in his hands himself, that he would have killed Laforce if Laforce hadn't killed him." "I know, I know," she said, "but I should have felt the same if John Marcey had killed Stroke Laforce." "It is a pity to throw your life away," he ventured. He said this for a purpose. He did not think she was throwing it away.
Was Laforce free now, and was she unwilling? It was so strange that she should thus have carried on her childhood into her womanhood. But he guessed her she had imagination. "His mother died in my arms in Winnipeg," she said abruptly at last. "I'm glad I was some comfort to her.
His eyes dwelt on it long he recalled the scene: a night with stars and no moon, a huge bonfire to light the Indians, at their dance, and Marcey, Laforce, and many others there, among whom was Lucille, the little daughter of Gyng the Factor.
They tried to take the child away, but she would not go; and when they carried Marcey on the shutter she followed close by, resisting her father's wishes and commands. And just before they made a prisoner of Laforce, she said to him very quietly so like a woman she was "I will give you back the basket, and the riding-whip, and the other things, and I will never forgive you never no, never!"

Marcey and Laforce were only boys then, neither yet twenty-three, and they were friendly rivals with the sweet little coquette, who gave her favors with a singular impartiality and justice. Once Marcey had given her a gold spoon. Laforce responded with a tiny, fretted silver basket. Laforce was delighted to see her carrying her basket, till she opened it and showed the spoon inside.
It was Stroke Laforce, who had been found near dead at the Metal River by a party of men exploring in the north. He had rescued the Englishman and his party, but within a day of the finding the Englishman died, leaving him his watch, a ring, and a cheque on the H. B. C. at Winnipeg. He and the two survivors, one of whom was Brickney, started south.
James Highcamp. Hugh! the less you have to do with Mrs. Highcamp, the better. 'Madame Laforce. Came all the way from Carrolton, too, poor old soul. 'Miss Wiggs, 'Mrs. Eleanor Boltons."
