In de fall he tak' me back to de igloo. He say, he mus' got to go to de land of de white man to buy supplies. I lak' to go, too, to de land of de white man, but he say no, you Injun, you stay in de Nort', an' by-m-by I com' back again. Den he go up de reever, an' all winter I stay in de igloo wit' my modder an' look out over de ice-pack at de boats in de Bufort Sea.
"Yes, I've heard of it myself," admitted Slim, "but I didn't think it was like this. Let's have another look." Dick and Nort moved aside to give the foreman a place of advantage, and when he had looked through a spot where the crack was wider he said: "I see where they can get th' cattle out.
Workin' out o' core be a new game for you." "I couldn' sleep for thinkin' 'bout 'bout the pig an' wan thing an' 'nother." "He's pork now, or nearly. You heard butcher promise me some nattlins, dedn' 'e? You'd best walk up to Paul bimebye an' fetch, 'em. 'Tis easier to call to mind other folk's promises than our awn. He said the same last pig-killin' an' it comed to nort."
If a very fundamental and timely remedy be not administered in this matter, it will increase to such an extent in a short time that afterward no remedy can be applied. The English and Flemish usually make this voyage by way of the strait of Magallanes. Lately Oliver del Nort, a Fleming, made the voyage.

"Guess that's good advice," admitted the lad with a sharp intaking of his breath. "Do same like soldiers," went on Buck Tooth. And, as I have said, the example of the troopers was one to be followed.
"And look there!" cried Nort, as he pointed to the North, a direction exactly opposite to that whence the horsemen discovered by Dick were approaching. "More Indians!" shouted Yellin' Kid. Snake Purdee leaped to a high rock and with rapid gaze swept the horizon.
There was little use in shouting above the din. A voice could be heard only in the lulls of shooting. "What's the matter?" yelled Bud, scarcely making himself heard. Snake motioned for him to cease firing, an example followed by Nort and Dick. As for the older cowboys they had wisely witheld their fire.
And plent' Injun in de Nort' dey lak' dat too. But dey 'fraid to keel him. We do de work Lapierre she tak' de money. Sacré! Me I'm 'fraid, too." He paused and shrugged significantly. "But som' day I'm git de chance an' den leetle Du Mont she dismees Lapierre from de serveece. Den me I'm de bos'. Bien!" The other glanced at him in admiration.
The government is trying to get several herds started, but it's no easy task. Why, there are almost as many buffalo in New York city as there is out west now."
