Thoreau made a muffled exclamation of astonishment. "To-day? And it is fairly well along toward noon!" "He cannot travel far." The Missioner nodded in the direction of the unthinned timber.
"Doubtless," said my father, "they belong to some herdsman in the forest above us, and have strayed down in search of acorns. They cannot belong to this village." "And why, pray?"
