"Why, he didn't go. He's in the liquor-shop settin' a trap for that rat, Pa." The teacher advanced, his fears at rest. "My name is Johnston," he said, "George G. Johnston. I was directed here, sir. You are Mr. Keeler, are you not, one of the trustees of the school of which I am to have charge?" A light step sounded on the gravel; the door opened and Erie entered. She was dressed in white.

"Here, you best set down and have a cup of coffee and I'll saddle him, myself.".
