"Permit me, Senor, to introduce you to Major Blossom Lieutenant Clayley Lieutenant Oakes: Don Cosme Rosales, gentlemen." My friends and the Don bowed to each other. The major had now recovered his complacency. "Vamonos, caballeros!"
And cold ugh!" Cosme hardly heard this speech. The gray world was a golden ball for him to spin at his will. Midas had touched the snow. The sleigh started with a jerk and a jingle. In a moment it was running lightly with a crisp, cutting noise.
Learning from the guide that we had been attacked, he had despatched a trusty servant to the American camp, and Raoul had met the party coming to our rescue. After supper Don Cosme left us to give some orders relative to his departure in the morning. His lady set about preparing the sleeping apartments, and my companion and I were left for some time in the sweet companionship of Lupe and Luz.
