The only memory that Maria carried away of the later talk, as the sleigh bore them homeward through the midnight woods, was of Lorenzo Surprenant extolling the United States and the magnificence of its great cities, the easy and pleasant life, the never-ending spectacle of the fine straight streets flooded with light at evening. Before she departed Lorenzo said in quiet tones, almost in her ear.

Eutrope Gagnon knew him by name, Ephrem Surprenant had met his father: "A tall mall, taller still than he, of a strength not to be matched." it only remained to account for Lorenzo Surprenant,"who has come, home from the States"-and all the conventions had been honoured. "A good trip," answered Francois. "No, not very good. One of the Belgians took a fever and nearly died.

Father and children were at first amazed, and then perceived in this the tremendous consequence of her translation beyond and far above them. Ephrem. Surprenant bent his eyes upon the face for a little, and then kneeled.

I shall stay with Ephrem, Surprenant, and come back in the morning." Chapdelaine was a little slow to make reply, recalling the stiff day's work his old beast had already accomplished, but at the end he went out to harness Charles Eugene once more. In a few minutes the doctor was on the road, leaving the family to themselves as usual. A great stillness reigned in the house.

Maria shuddered as the thought swiftly awoke of those dark secrets hidden beneath the ever-lasting green and white of the forest. Lorenzo Surprenant was right in what he had been saying; it was a pitiless ungentle land.

If you will marry me as I ask I will take you off to a country that will open your eyes with astonishment a fine country, not a bit like this, where we can live in a decent way and be happy for the rest of our days." Maria still was silent, and yet the sentences of Lorenzo Surprenant beat upon her heart as succeeding waves roll against the shore.
