She was then about four years old, and came jumping and laughing to throw her arms about his neck, and ask him for sweetmeats.

He laughed. “Oh, I’m a tenderfoot all right but I know something about paddling a canoe. Had a lot of it last summer and I can swim. And if it is not too expensive, I’ve got the money.
