So I supposed, but this morning I received orders to sail to-morrow.
Then I have no time to accomplish the object I had in view in sending for you.
State your object, and if possible, I will help you accomplish it.
I sent for you in relation to the young man you have often heard me speak of, that I found in the Minisink wilderness.
Is that the young man that handed me the letter?
Yes.
The fellow that killed the panther, and fell in love with the cat?
Precisely. Only the cat is the namesake or representative of the girl he fell in love with.
Oh, I remember it all, replied Davis. In what way can I assist either you or him?
I wish to procure a situation for him on your ship.
