"Mrs. Carson has come to see you," she says, in an agony of fear, giving her a little shake. "You have something important to say to me," says Mona, presently, seeing he will not speak: "at least, so your letter led me to believe." So Kŭt-o-yĭs´ set off for that place, and when he came to the camp he went into an old woman's lodge..
