summary: Well, no, she said, you must not say that; but though I am an old horse, and have seen and heard a great deal, I never yet could make out why men are so fond of this sport; they often hurt themselves, often spoil good horses, and tear up the fields, and all for a hare, or a fox, or a stag, that they could get more easily some other way; but we are only horses, and don't know. you never had a good place where they were kind to you, and so you don't know, and I am sorry for you; but I can tell you good places make good horses.

summary: It was now agreed that Jim Scraggs and Dick Varley, being the two best shots, should try over again; and it was also agreed that Dick should have the use of Blunt's rifle. Just as the word was given to resume the march, Dick Varley rode up to Cameron, and said in a somewhat anxious tone--D'ye obsarve, sir, that one o' the Red-skins has gone off ahead o' his comrades? I see that, Master Dick, and it was a mistake of mine not to have stopped him, but he was gone too far before I observed it, and I thought it better to appear unconcerned.

Before she had ceased speaking Seth was flinging rug after rug on the burning oil, for Aunt Hannah, like many another woman living in the country, had an ample supply of such floor coverings. It was not until Aunt Hannah had concluded that Seth appeared to understand he was the boy referred to, and then he asked excitedly: Do you suppose the Seth Barrows told about there can be me? Of course, my dear.

But after that terrible hour little Adah was as she was: frail, uncertain of step, scarred on the pearl of her neck and the rose of her cheek; not with full command of her voice; more nervously deficient than organically defective,--but a perfect being marred.
