"But how could I help it?" says Mona, simply. "Oh, what a wretched state this country is in! turmoil and strife from morning till night. And yet to talk to those very people, to mix with them, they seem such courteous, honest, lovable creatures!" Fisher said, "No; I see nothing except buffalo," for he was looking across the river to the other side, and not down into the water.

"I will come, of course," says Mona, nervously, "but I am afraid she will be disappointed. You will excuse me, Mr. Rodney, I am sure," turning graciously to Paul, who is standing with folded arms in the background. "Why do you speak of people dropping out of your life?" When they reached the river the old man said, "This is the place to stand and shoot. I will go down and drive them out." Not many nights after that the woman's child died, and she cried a great deal for it. She said to Old Man, "Let us change this. The law that you first made, let that be the law.".
