Lahoma did not think life would have been too long to devote to such pilgrimages.In the settlements,she was bewildered,but never satiated,with novelties,and on the way back,everything she had seen was discussed,expounded and classified between her and her cousin.Sometimes her questions drove Brick up against a stone wall and then Bill Atkins would raise his voice and in three or four words put the matter in its true light.
Bill,he's saw more of life than me,Brick conceded admiringly.He has come and went amongst all sorts of people,but my specialty has in the main been low.
Yes,I've seen more of life,Atkins agreed;that's why I try so hard to keep away from it.
The more I see,the more I want to see!cried Lahoma eagerly.Yes,honey,Brick explained,that's because you're a WOMAN.
