In a year or so he and his friends were made happy by that coming to pass, but even had it not been so, I am assured Dr. Lummis would have faced the inevitable without a whimper, a cry, or a word of worry or complaint.
Charles F. Lummis, the well-known litterateur and organizer of the South-West Museum, of Los Angeles, after using his eyes and brain more liberally than most men do in a lifetime thrice, or four times as long as his, was unfortunately struck blind. Did he "worry" over it, and fret himself into a worse condition? No! not for a moment.
Our boys at that time really read a great deal of good literature on the subject, including Mrs. Custer's books and those by Grinnell and Lummis."
"Fifty aye, forty! years ago, to be in possession of one of those tickets was was " "A grand thing!" said one of the old gentlemen. "Mr. Lummis is right," said Mr. Quarterpage. "It was a grand thing a very grand thing. Those tickets, sir, were treasured are treasured. And yet you, a stranger, show us one! You got it, sir " Spargo saw that it was now necessary to cut matters short.
The last time I saw "Jeff," in 1862, he was buried up to his ears in the cool sands of the Roanoke Island shore, with eyes upturned and looking like a very sad pig, but I fear none the wiser for his offenses against the rights of a well-regulated digestion. By Charles F. Lummis No other creature is so absolutely graceful as a rattlesnake, and none more gentle in intention.
They would also give credence to at least periodic inhabiting of the Mesa. The absence of house ruins, on the other hand, would explain why Hodge scouted Lummis' theory. The Indians explained to Miss McLain that a boy could climb blindfolded where he could not go open-eyed, a fact that all mountain engineers will substantiate. But what matters the quarrel?
C. F. Lummis, who knows them well, believes them to be a crimeless people. The Moquis of Arizona are the most primitive of the Pueblo Indians and are worthy representatives of their race. They are of the Aztecan branch of the Shoshonean family and probably the lineal descendents of the cliff dwellers.
Sylvia, will you stand before the sophy? Master Lummis on the right side. Let us pray." But even as he spoke the words a great knocking pealed through the house: the brass lion's head on the front door beat a reveille loud and long.
Lummis," he said, looking towards the cottage on the other side of the road. "What is that?" said I. "Her son?" There had been no news of him for two months. "Yes, poor Jack. She's got news that he was killed near la Bassée in June. Nice feller and her only son." Then, more cheerfully, he added, "Jim's coming home to-morrow.
The story of Columbus and of the early explorers will be found in John Fiske's "Discovery of America," a book written simply and interestingly, but without Parkman's insight and wizardry of style which, indeed, no other American historian can equal. A little book by Charles F. Lummis, called "The Spanish Pioneers," also gives a vivid picture of those early explorers.
