"They've had to learn," said Willet. "The forests in these times are a hard teacher, but they're bright and good boys, just the same. Nobody would learn faster." "Even as Red Coat has learned to be a scout and to know the trail," said Tayoga, "but he is not sorry to come among white men and to have good food once more." "No, I'm not," said Grosvenor emphatically.

"Yes, but not poppy cheeks; they're more the pink of a of a horsechestnut!" "I think pink horsechestnut blooms are beautiful." "Oh, you do, do you? And I suppose you think Eddie Bell is beautiful!" "Well, there's no occasion for you to get mad about it if I do. Do you know, Mr. Cameron, you flare up very easily." "If you'll call me Kit, I'll promise never to flare up again."

The parson, priest, sub-sheriff too, Were all her slaves, and so would you, If you had only but one view, Of such a face and shape, or Her pretty ankles But, ohone, It's only west of old Athlone Such girls were found and now they're gone So here's to Mary Draper!

If they act this way when they're raw, what'll they do when they are seasoned?"
