"Yet answer me," persists he, very earnestly. Within the lodge the fire burned brightly, and seated around it were many men, the old and wise of the Raven band.

Food was placed before the guests—pemican and berries and dried back fat—and after they had eaten the pipe was lighted and passed around the circle. Then the Raven chief spoke and said, "Now, Wolf, I am going to give our new friend a present. What do you think of that?" "Your advice is excellent," says he, sneeringly.

As the great eye of heaven shined bright, "I do feel with you," he says, hastily. "Do not believe otherwise." Then, as though impelled to it, he says in a low tone, though very distinctly, "I would gladly make your griefs mine, if you would make my joys yours." "Oh, no," says Mona, gently; "only I should like you better, of course, if you were not the cause of our undoing." To his mother, however, he has sent no word of Mona, knowing only too well how the news of his approaching marriage with this "outer barbarian" (as she will certainly deem his darling) will be received.

It is that, knowing argument to be useless, he puts off the evil hour that may bring pain to his mother to the last moment..
