When afflicted with Mercury or the moon, he denotes thieves, hangmen, and 'all cut throat people. In fact, except the ploughboy, who belongs to Saturn, all the members of the old septet, 'tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor, apothecary, ploughboy, thief, are favourites with Mars.

On one occasion he was camped with a small party of Blackfeet south of the. Red Deer River.

The twilight would be upon them apace the long-lasting, purple-veiled twilight of the altitudes.
