My wives tried to kill me. They dug a deep hole and I fell into it, and I was hurt so badly I could not get out; but the wolves took pity on me and helped me or I would have died there.",“It was four.”,“Yes, there goes a steamer to the east, and a beautiful boat lies right near here, and far out there is sail after sail.”,"Why could you not have stayed in Australia?" says Mona, with some excitement. "You are rich; your home is there; you have passed all your life up to this without a title, without the tender associations that cling round Nicholas and that will cost him almost his life to part with. You do not want them, yet you come here to break up our peace and make us all utterly wretched."，CHAPTER VII.—THE LITTLE CHURCH IN THE COULEE.，CHAPTER X.，"No," said Lady Meg, speaking for the first time, "because I did not know if you had come by it honestly."“I can well believe it,” said Aunt Grenertsen. “People never stay at home in these days.
