With a large spoon he took a quantity of the thick rich cream from the top of the milk and put a saucer of it before the visitor. Trenholme ate it with his bread, and found it not as sour as he expected, and on the whole very good. Turrif, eating bread as he went, carried the harness out of the house. As there was no one left for him to talk to, Trenholme grew more observant.
Trenholme had had various negotiations with this Turrif and his neighbours, but he had only once been to the house he was now seeking and in the darkness, which had fallen completely during his three-mile walk, he was a little puzzled to find it quickly.
On hearing this the bold girl who had come with them shrieked again, and two of the younger men took her aside, and, holding her head over a bucket in the corner poured water on it, a process which silenced her. "And," said Turrif, quietly speaking in French, "what then?" "What then?" said Saul; "Then to-day I brought him in the cart."
"Well," said he, meaning that this was not a matter of importance. "But why?" said Turrif again. "Oh, I don't know." Trenholme looked down at his moccasined feet. I was well enough off here so far as looking out for myself was concerned." Turrif looked at him with kind and serious disapproval. "And when will you begin to live se life of a man?" "How do you mean 'a man'?"
He knew there was no other house within half a mile, and the darkness that lay on the flat land appeared to give room for a thousand dangers. He expressed this surprise to Turrif, who replied placidly that the good saints took care of women and children a reply which probably did not go to prove the man's piety so much as the habitual peace of the neighbourhood.
