"So I've just learned, but it's the first I've heard of it. Funny you didn't mention it to me." Larkin eyed him curiously. "Well," slowly, "I knew you were English and " "But I'm not, and you know it!" McGee flared. "Calm, brother, calm! I mean, I knew your father and mother were English, and so was your brother." "But I was born in America. I'm just as much of an American as you are!"

Lastly, I wish to bring forward a very striking example of the complete maternal family among the Seri Indians, on the south-west coast of North America, now reduced to a single tribe. Their curious and interesting marriage customs have been described by McGee, who visited the people to report on their customs for the American Government.
This led to a reconsideration of the patriarchal theory; and for a time it was widely held that in the early stages of society a matriarchate prevailed, in which women held the supreme power. Further support came from Morgan, with his knowledge of the maternal family among American aborigines, and he was followed by Professor Tylor, McGee, and many other investigators.
"Say, what's eatin' you, soldier?" demanded the irate American motor cycle orderly. For answer McGee sprang into the side car and barked a few crisp, sharp orders that brooked no hesitation. The responsive little motor roared its staccato eagerness as the machine lurched forward, leaving Larkin speechless and wondering. "What do you know about that?" he mused.
And yes, there just beyond the river was a town which McGee concluded must be Fere-en-Tardenois and a little way from its outskirts a group of drab square blocks that caught and held his eyes. Too much ground haze to make them out. Well, a chance is a chance, he reasoned, as over went the Camel's nose in a long dive. Twice he checked the dive, only to dive again.
Now you come up, won't ye?" "I will call some evening with my brother," said Wayne embarrassedly. "With which?" demanded McGee. "My brother Arthur. We usually spend the evenings together." McGee paused, leaned against the doorpost, and, fixing his clear eyes on Wayne, said: "Ef it's all the same to you, I'd rather you did not bring him. You understand what I mean?
"I know all about it, and I've called you here for two reasons: I think you, McGee, are entitled to see the next to the last act in this little ah tragedy, I suppose it should be called; and I want Larkin to be present when his uniform reappears. I might need him for purposes of identification." "But " Cowan lifted a protesting hand. "Don't ask questions. Better let me tell it.
On the 16th, when McGee reached Ligny-en-Barrois, which had served as General Pershing's field headquarters at the beginning of the operation, he found that his squadron had been withdrawn from the sector and sent somewhere else. Where? No one seemed to know. Furthermore, no one seemed to care a great deal.
