The idea of Michel Pensonneau taking precedence of him as master of the cedar hut was delicious to the American, as he recalled the engagé's respectful slouch while receiving the usual bill of credit. "One may laugh, monsieur. I laugh myself; it is better than crying. But it is the truth that Mama Lalotte is more care to me than all the boys. I have no peace except when she is asleep in bed."
And she has taken a much worse man than Michel Pensonneau in her time." "My mother and my brothers have left me here alone," repeated Jenieve; and she wrung her hands and put them over her face.
