I don’t see how your father has had time to quarrel with him.” “Uncle Isaac has made you his chief heir. You are the owner of Kingthorpe, my boy.” “I saw ’em. Dad sent me out ’bout sundown to hunt a stray calf and I saw some smoke coming from a draw where nobody had any business being. I hitched my nag and crawled up until I could see.”.
