When will you return to the Fort ?" "Mebbe never, Betty." "Oh, no.

Don't say that.

I know all this Indian talk will blow over, as it always does, and you will come back and everything will be all right again." "I hope it'll be as you say, Betty, but there's no tellin', there's no tellin'." "You are going to see if the Indians are making preparations to besiege the Fort ?" "Yes, I am goin' fer that.

And if I happen to find Miller on my way I'll give him Betty's regards." Betty shivered at his covert meaning.
