After a time the old man decided to do this, and he gave the young man his daughters; and because these three were his only children he gave his son-in-law his dogs and all his property, and for himself and his wife he kept only a little lodge. The young man's wives tanned plenty of cow skins and made a big fine lodge, and in this the son-in-law lived with his wives. In manner he is somewhat indolent, silent, perhaps lazy.

"Did she have both together on her knee?" asks Dorothy, vaguely. "She must have found it heavy." "There! take it. I can be generous too." "The question was strictly in bad taste," says Lady Rodney again. "No well-bred man would ask it. I can hardly believe I know him. He must have been some impossible person." "Yes; it was her that called last week," returns her amiable mother-in-law, laying an unmistakable stress upon the pronoun..
