At this Mona laughs unrestrainedly; and Lady Rodney, rising hurriedly, says,— Several nights had passed since the signs warned him to turn back, but notwithstanding the warnings, he had succeeded. Perhaps his success had made him too confident. He longed for more of it. "One more scalp I shall take," he said, "and then I will return to the people."

There are stories which explain how these societies came to be instituted, and this one tells how the Society of Bulls began. "How fortunate!" says that fat woman, with her broad expansive grin that leaves her all mouth, with no eyes or nose to speak of. "We hardly dared hope for such good luck this charming day.".
