Why, there isn't a man on that river who doesn't chip in five or ten dollars when a man is hurt or killed; and that means three or four days' hard work for him. And he may not know or like the injured man at all! Why " "What's all the excitement?" drawled Jane Hubbard behind them. "Can't you make it a to-be-continued-in-our-next? We're 'most starved." "Yes-indeed!" chimed in the Incubus.
"How do you know I want him so summarily removed?" the girl asked him, without changing either her graceful attitude of suspended motion or the intentness of her gaze. "Well," argued Orde, "I got him to say all he ever says to any girl 'Yes-indeed! so you couldn't have any more conversation from him. If you want to look at him, why, there he is in plain sight.
"Yes-indeed!" replied the Incubus as though it were one word. His chair was planted squarely to exclude all others. Orde surveyed the situation with good-humour. "Going to keep the other fellow from getting a chance, I see." "Yes-indeed!" replied the Incubus. Orde bent over, and with great ease lifted Incubus, chair, and all, and set him facing Mignonne Smith and the croquet-ball.
"I was beginning to be afraid you'd say 'yes-indeed," said she. Orde looked bewildered, then remembered the Incubus, and laughed. "I haven't been very conversational," he acknowledged. "Certainly NOT!" she said severely. "That would have been very disappointing. There has been nothing to say." She turned and waved her hat at the beech woods falling sombre against the lowering sun.
