We slept most all day, and started out at night, a little ways behind a monstrous long raft that was as long going by as a procession. She had four long sweeps at each end, so we judged she carried

25、 as many as thirty men, likely. She had five big wigwams aboard, wide apart, and an open camp fire in the middle, and a tall flag-pole at each end. There was a power of style about her. It amounted to something being a raftsman on such a craft as that. I got to feeling so mean and so miserable I mos

30、 there, and maybe youd help me tow the raft ashore where the light is. Hes sick and so is mam and Mary Ann.” “ Well, ” says I, a-blubbering, “ Ive told everybody before, and they just went away and left us.” “ Poor devil, theres something in that. We are right down sorry for you, but we well, hang it, we dont want the small-pox, you see. Look here, Ill tell you what to do.
