But I did take it to heart because Miss Woppit seemed disinclined to favor any suit for her fair hand particularly because she was by no means partial to Three-fingered Hoover, as square a man as ever struck pay dirt dear old pardner, your honest eyes will never read these lines, between which speaks my lasting love for you!
The gents smiled and bowed obsequiously, neither, however, indulging in conversation to any marked degree, for, as was quite natural, each felt in the presence of his rival a certain embarrassment which we can fancy Miss Woppit respected if she did not enjoy it.
In the face of all their wooing, Miss Woppit hardened her heart against these three gentlemen, any one of whom the highest lady in the land might have been proud to catch. The girl was not inclined to affairs of the heart; she cared for no man but her brother Jim.
That was a determination that bespoke a thoughtfulness and a tenderness that ennobled Jim Woppit in our opinions. It was the square thing. Barber Sam, ever fertile in suggestion, allowed that it might be a pious idea for Miss Woppit to move down to the Mears House and board there until the new cabin was built.
From what Miss Woppit implied rather than said, Mary took it that Miss Woppit esteemed Mr. Hoover highly as a gentleman and as a friend that she perhaps valued his friendship more than she did that of any other man in the world, always excepting her brother Jim, of course.
Mills made up his mind that Steve must have been concerned in one way or another in that Magpie Glen crime. The wooing of Miss Woppit pursued the even tenor of its curious triple way. Wars and rumors of wars served merely to imbue it with certain heroic fervor.
