The women cultivated the maize with primitive implements, and prepared it for food in many attractive forms, including hominy and succotash, of which the names, as well as the dishes themselves, are borrowed from the red man. He has not always been rewarded in kind for his goodly gifts.
"You needn't mind it, though," said Dotty, giving the one-wheeled coach a hard push; "a little girl that's going visiting, and have succotash for dinner." "I didn't know I was. O, I am so glad! What is it!" "Corn and beans. Aunt Martha's girl is the best cook, makes cherry pudding. Dear, dear, dear! Wish I was in Portland; see 'f I wouldn't go to Tate Penny's, and have some salmon and ice-cream!"
Henry's pleasures in life were so few and simple that they had to go a long way, and lap over onto his spiritual needs from his physical ones. Sylvia broke in upon his visions of succotash. She was straining her eyes to see the road beyond the front yard. "What time is it?" she asked. "Do you know?" "It was half-past five by the kitchen clock." "They ain't in sight yet."
"I mean that I haven't any doubt that Bridget would in a very short time become a highly successful produce-broker with bull tendencies. The chicken market would be buoyant, and the quotations on the Stock Exchange of, say, B., S., and P.-U.-C. otherwise, Beef, Succotash, and Picked-Up-Codfish would rise to the highest point in years.
She looked about for available material. "You get that little box up by the house," she directed, "and we'll have that for the rock." Ben did as ordered. "Now bring two tin cans. You'll find a pile back of the barn." Once more the boy departed, to return a moment later with a pair of "selects," each bearing in gaudy illumination a composite picture of the ingredients of succotash.
The difference between the Eastern baked bean and the Western is all the difference between a tin can and a religious rite and it is the same with succotash. A cruller is only a fried doughnut when it gets out West. Tea is more subtle in the East, but out here the waitress will ask "Black or green" in a black or white tone and stands over you until you decide.
Mother Blake had canned some plain corn, and had also put away more, mixed with lima beans, making succotash as the Indians used to do. Daddy Blake soon began to dig the late potatoes, which would be kept down cellar in the dark to be eaten as they were needed during the long Winter. "And I think we'll have enough to last us until Spring," he said, "and perhaps have some for seed.
Presently Reid put the hat on his head, came over to Mackenzie's fire, and squatted near it on his heels, although the sun was broiling hot and the flare of the ardent little blaze was scorching to his face. So he sat, silent as an Indian, looking with fixed eyes at the fire, while Mackenzie fried his bacon and warmed a can of succotash in the pan.
"All well at home?" asked the young fellow, as he took up the bill of fare to order the dinner. His father hated that, and always made him do it. "Yes, yes; as usual, I believe. Minnie is off for a week at the mountains; Eunice is at home." "Oh! How would you like some green goose, with apple-sauce, sweet-potatoes, and succotash?" "It seems to me that was pretty good, the last time.
Both lads bustled about trying to make him comfortable near the cheery blaze, and then filling a pannikin with the canoeist's stew of corn beef, succotash and left-over potatoes, they invited him to set-to, nor wait for them a second.
