"They say this Chief Joseph Fry is going about complaining that he always got three dollars for one vote before, and this time he expected six for two, and got nothing!" "Chief Joseph Fry!" exclaimed Alec.

"They make me tired with their Chief Josephs and Chief Henrys! White Clam Shell--that was the name he got when he wasn't christened." "That's the name," remarked Advena, "that he probably votes under." "Well," said Mrs Murchison, "it was very kind of Squire Ormiston to give Lorne his support, but it seems to me that as far as Moneida is concerned he would have done better alone." "No, I guess he wouldn't, Mother," said Alec.

"Moneida came right round with the Squire, outside the Reserve.

If it hadn't been for the majority there we would have lost the election.

The old man worked hard, and Lorne is grateful to him, and so he ought to be." "If they carry the case against Lorne," said Stella, "he'll be disqualified for seven years." "Only if they prove him personally mixed up in it," said the father.
"And that," he added with a concentration of family sentiment in the emphasis of it, "they'll not do.".
