I got through that door easy as anything, and it was no trick at all to slip behind the blind, raise the window, and drop into mother's room from the sill.

From there I reached the back dining-room door easy enough, went around to the kitchen, and called Leon softly.
He opened the door at once and I slipped in.

He had just got there.
We looked all around and couldn't see where to begin at first.

There was enough cooked food there to load two wagons.
An old pillow-case that had dried sage in it was lying across a chair and Leon picked it up and poured the sage into the wood-box, and handed the case to me.

He went over and knelt before the oven, while I followed and held open the case.
