You've got to live and take care of Virginia." "She should never have returned to this accursed country," Cavanagh harshly replied, starting back toward the cabin. The constable, smoking his pipe beside the fireplace, did not present an anxious face; on the contrary, he seemed plumply content as he replied to the ranger's greeting.
"I reckon thar ain't no law agin the ranger's bein' a ranger an' a taker-up too," put in one of the bystanders. "'Tain't like a sher'ff 's buyin' at his own sale. An' he hed ter pay haffen her vally into the treasury o' the county arter twelve months, ef the owner never proved her away."

In the smoke of that fire was the reek of human flesh.
You're the best thing that's happened to me in years." "I'm flattered to hear that, Your Majesty." Almost as flattered as he was stunned by the unexpected greeting. Yasunon released his hands and reached into a compartment on his belt he was wearing a Ranger's uniform, with the Imperial Seal and pinned the star-in-circle badge to Medart's tunic, then repeated Perry's greeting.
