"So did I, but it seems that Kenwardine came to Stuyvesant and offered him as much as he wanted." "Kenwardine!" Dick exclaimed. Bethune lighted his pipe. "Yes, Kenwardine.

On the other hand a gentleman from Canada, whose ostensible business was to repossess himself of some lands on the Ohio which had been formerly granted to him, frequently discussed the vital importance of the navigation of the Mississippi, and privately assured several individuals of great influence that if they were disposed to assert their rights he was authorized by Lord Dorchester, the Governor of Canada, to say that they might rely confidently on his assistance.
