The canoes would be unladen, taken on shore, and their contents disposed in order. A camp of birch bark would be pitched outside of the town, and a kind of primitive fair opened with that grave ceremonial so dear to the Indians.
'To the Prefect of the Corn market how many wheat-ships have you ordered to be unladen? 'Two, your Excellency. 'Well, that will be largess enough for the time being.

She affected to sew, but her eyes never left the street. Between ten and eleven the desired waggon, now unladen, reappeared on its return journey.
