The editor told him all he had been able to gather regarding the matte of the fire-extinguishers, and as he talked Eliph' saw the butcher leave his shop and enter the drug store he was after chemicals. He turned to the editor with fresh assurance.
In autumn, when Matte and Maie went ashore, the cow went to sea, and in spring, when they returned to the rock, there she stood awaiting them. 'We shall require a better house, said Maie the following summer; 'the old one is too small for ourselves and the men. 'Yes, said Matte.
"Didn't know but I could help you do youa dressin'," she began, and then at sight of the dim figure she broke off: "Why, Clem! What's the matte? Ah' you asleep? Ah' you sick? It's half an hour of the time and" "I'm not going," Clementina answered, and she did not move. "Not goin'! Why the land o' " "Oh, I can't go, Mrs. Atwell. Don't ask me! Tell Mrs. Milray, please!"
That done, the men caused the women to withdraw themselues backe, then they euery one sate downe on the ground round about vs, as if they would haue shewen and rehearsed some Comedie or other shew: then presently came the women againe, euery one bringing a foure square Matte in manner of Carpets, and spreading them abroad on the ground in that place, they caused vs to sit vpon them.
There sat Matte in his ragged grey jacket, quite alone, on the steps of the old hut, mending a net. 'Heavens, mother, said he, 'where are you coming from at such a whirlwind pace, and what makes you in such a dripping condition? Maie looked around her amazed, and said, 'Where is our two-storey house? 'What house? asked her husband.
He had not proceeded far when he found it cast up on the shore, and so full of fish that not a mesh was visible. 'It is all very fine to possess a cow, said Matte, as he cleaned the fish; 'but what are we going to feed her on? 'We shall find some means, said his wife; and the cow found the means herself.
'Oh! cried Matte, 'have your worships really seen all that? 'We have as good as seen it, said the students. 'It is all printed in a book, and everything printed is true. 'I'm not so sure of that, said Matte, as he shook his head. But the herring were now ready, and the students ate enough for six, and gave Prince some cold meat which they happened to have in the boat.
'Oh, only the words of an old rhyme that keeps running in my head, answered the old woman; and she raised her voice and went on: Oh, Ahti, with the long, long beard, Who dwellest in the deep blue sea, A thousand cows are in thy herd, I pray thee give one onto me. 'That's a stupid sort of song, said Matte. 'What else should one beg of the sea-king but fish? But such songs are not for Sunday.
We fared well, on rice, beans, and crackers, with canned corned beef, and salmon or any game that had been shot, and coffee, tea, and matte. I then usually sat down somewhere to write, and when the mules were nearly ready I popped my writing-materials into my duffel-bag/war-sack, as we would have called it in the old days on the plains.
'This is not so much a matte of business as of family, said the Chevalier, still looking so uneasily at Philip that Berenger felt constrained to advise him to join the young ladies in the garden; but instead of doing this, the boy paced the corridors like a restless dog waiting for his master, and no sooner heard the old gentleman bow himself out than he hurried back again, to find Berenger heated, panting, agitated as by a sharp encounter.
