“Of course I was preparing your mind for it like. What do you think of the Fort Mifflin Institute for the education of youths of both sexes?”
“That certainly sounds well.”

“You will have to be a little more explicit in your statements, before I can give you any decided opinion.”
“Why, as soon as we get to Fort Mifflin I shall erect a building, to be called the Fort Mifflin Institute for the Education of the Youths of both sexes. I shall have a lot of circulars printed.”
“Where will you get them printed?”
“At Fort Mifflin, of course. I believe in supporting home industry; I swun if I ain’t!”
Wainwright laughed.
“There is no printing office within a hundred miles of Fort Mifflin.”
