this year ; and I suggest the propriety of 

 leaving some for us. The boy is a little 

 slow to take the idea : but he has apparently 

 found the picking poor, and exhausted it ;

 me with 



" Mister, I say, can you tell me where I 

 can find some walnuts ? " 



The coolness of this world grows upon me. 

 It is time to go in and light a wood-fire on 

 the hearth.
