The old lodges of the Piegans were made of buffalo skin and were painted with pictures of different kinds—birds, or animals, or trees, or mountains.

The Captain informed Mr Lawrence that last week Mrs Rousby had presented him with twins, a catastrophe which greatly increased his expenses at a time when he was without employment, and when money was never more urgently needed.

Wasn't it lovely of Bruce to get them, and won't it be transcendant, with all of us together!","Mrs. Geoffrey is incapable of making any mistake. How silent you are, old fellow!",At this point Moses looked up from his plate and complained, “Mar, this piece o’ meat I got, is so tough it hurts yer eyes to look at it.”,"She has not returned, then?" said Captain Acton.,Mr. Wopp looked up in approval and brandished a formidable looking piece of fat meat, precariously poised on one prong of his fork and in his efforts to lose none of its dripping flavor, described an uncertain spiral in the air.,Innocuous as this remark might seem, it caused St. Elmo’s lip to quiver and two large tears started on their grimy course down his cheeks.,“Anything else you can do better than a girl?” she jeered, good-naturedly.,When the last verse had been read and the laughter died down, Griffin raised her voice again..
