SHE wrote that "Luke" was hankering after a colonial governorship. 'Well, he's got it, replied Mrs Gildea noncommittally.
"I will like it," he admitted, "but it will not be as exciting as sleeping on a train." "No, of course it won't, but it will be lots more comfortable, and you see I have to think of that," the Captain explained, "but I promise you some day we will sleep in a train, and on a boat, or any old place you like, how's that?"

Presently Isabeau would come to her to say noncommittally, but with watchful, white-rimmed eyes, that Mist' Bans'ter he didn' want no breakfuss, he jus' take hisse'f off. For the rest of the day, Martie carried a heart of lead. Mentally, morally, physically, the little family steadily descended.
