"I will suggest that to Mrs. Vernon."
"I suppose you would like to know how matters are going on at Timberville, Michigan."
"I would."
"Well, the news is first-rate. In the first place my uncle, Felix Amberton, is as well as ever again."
"I am very glad to hear that."
"In the second place his lawyers have made it so warm for those Canadians and Englishmen that were trying to defraud my uncle out of his timber lands, that the foreigners have given up the contest."
"They have left Mr. Amberton in sole possession of the lands?"
"Exactly. That map you procured from old Herman Wenrich did the business."
"In that case I don't think Mr. Wenrich ought to be forgotten by your uncle."
"My uncle has sent Herman Wenrich his check for one thousand dollars."
