"I wish you would not talk of being buried," says Mona, with a sob. "There is no comfort in the tomb: there our dust may mingle, but in heaven our souls shall meet, I trust,—I hope." In those days the old Piegans lived in the north, close to the Red Deer River. The camp moved, and the lodges were pitched on the river.

One of these men was named Weasel Heart and the other Fisher. "Take courage, my brother," said the bear. "Keep up a strong heart, for I will help you, and you shall have life.".

"No, indeed," says Mona, laughing. "But it surely wasn't English, was it? That is not the way everybody talks, surely." "I will—when I find it," returns she, with an irrepressible glance, full of native but innocent coquetry, from her beautiful eyes. "Does she—does Miss Scully find country life unsatisfying? Has she not lived here always?" "I am perfectly content, nay more than content, with the match I have made," he says, haughtily; "and if you are alluding to Paul Rodney, I can only say I have noticed nothing reprehensible in Mona's treatment of him.".
