Thus far, the settlers had rested contented with the sea-board region east of the Alleghanies.
"'From Pisgah's top, the promised land, I now exult to see: My hope is full, oh, glorious hope, Of immortality. "But I beg your pardon, sir; am I crowding you?" "Crowding me? not a bit of it. I trust I shall always have room for company like you." "Thank you, sir, thank you. I'm only a wedge" with a merry laugh "but I try to fill every opening the Lord shows me.
It was Pisgah's turn to be touched. "My blood is upon your head, Francine! Have you any money?" "Yes, yes! a gentleman, a noir, a naigre, for whom I have washed, paid me fifty francs this evening. It is all here; take it, my love!" "I do not know, creature! that your conduct permits me to do so," said Pisgah, drawing back. "You will drive me mad if you refuse," shrieked the blanchisseuse.
