"After he drunk it he handed me back the glass and driv off, sayin' he'd be round later. I took the glass into the house agin and sot it 'longside the bottle on the mantel, and when I turned round there sot the Gov'ment dep'ty. He'd come in, wife said, while I was talkin' with Luke in the road.

He spread his blanket on the stone floor, lay down and kept his word. "We might as well follow," said Henry. "Sol's a man of intelligence, and, as he says, when there's nothing to do, rest."
It's a plaguey sight safer than letting her carry it in her mind, and then laying for yer some day when ye heven't nary thought of Injuns in your head.

"I was talkin' to him this after " "You WAS!" exclaimed Amanda, a note of chagrin in her voice.
