Do you feel better now, Cassy ?" "Better?
How does it concern me ?" He laughed.
"Put Black Jake in the wagon," he called to Jesse.
Alice heard him and came downstairs; we went out on the _piazza_, to see him off.

"Why do you go ?" she asked, in an uneasy tone.
"I must.

Wont you go too ?" She refused; but whispered to me, asking if I were afraid?
"Of what ?" "Men quarreling." "Cassandra, will you go ?" he asked.

"If not, I am off.

Jump in behind, Sam, will you ?" "Go," said Alice; and she ran in for a shawl, which she wrapped round me.
"Alice," said Charles, "you are a silly woman." "As you have always said," she answered, laughing.
