Jack being a little behind me I stopped until he camp up, and showed it to him.

He picked it up.

We looked a few steps farther and saw a man lying by the way, either asleep or intoxicated, as we supposed.
I told Jack not to take the hat, but he would not obey me.

He had only a piece of a hat himself, which he left in exchange for the other.

We travelled on about five miles farther, and in passing a house discovered a large turkey sitting on the fence, which temptation was greater than Jack could resist.
