"She moved here after plantin' him West somewhere," says I. "One of the big lumber crowd, I've heard. Sadie can tell you more." "Thanks," says he; "but I'll have it from Katie herself. Take me there." "Eh?" says I. "On a chance shot? I'd look well, wouldn't I?" "But you must," says he. "Now!" "Come off!" says I. "You with only a glance at her!
