He's probably a year or two older than I am, but I am quite motherly with him. And he is shockingly incompetent, as a homesteader, from the look of his shack.

With a vague idea of keeping the thing in the family, he had resolved to make his raid upon Sir Thomas Blunt. Somehow it did not seem so bad robbing one's relatives. A man's first crime is, as a rule, a shockingly amateurish affair.
She came back a few steps, and hesitatingly said. "For, after all, Morton, the girl is abnormal." "So are we all under abnormal conditions. I am going to see if I can't so change the current of her thought that she will forget her besetments and you must help me."
