Wildfire appeared to shoot ahead at greater speed. Then he slowed up.
"I am not your mistress," said I, "and yet you must mind me." Tears started as he slowly drew it off, when the torn and bloody shirtsleeves revealed the long sears, and a few unhealed sores on his arms. Said I, "Are these the marks of the slave whip?" He nodded assent, while tears were falling. "When was this done?" "Two nights afore I lef'." "What was jour offence?"
