The dark cloud had been banished from his brow. He civilly accosted every acquaintance he met, appeared cheerful and good- humored, and desirous of prolonging the conversation with all with whom he Came in contact, without seeming to notice, in the least, the evident inclination of most of the settlers to avoid his company. He came down, every few days, to the little village before named as the place where the court was held, and lounged for hours about the tavern ; which, during the winter sea...son, was the common resort of the settlers. Here he soon encountered his old companions, Philhps, Codman, and the Elwoods, all of whom, notwithstanding the cold and demure manner with which the two former, at least, turned away from him, he saluted with careless ease, and as if nothing had hap- pened to disturb their former social relations. And, having thus surmounted the somewhat difficult task of breaking the ice with them, without receiving the open and absolute repulse which, however disposed, they did not deem it wise to give him, he, at the next meeting, ventured to broach the subject of their late quarrel, affecting to laugh at their mutual exhibitions of folly in getting so angry with each other in court, under the belief, on his part, that they had got the furs, and, on their part, that he had made way with them ; when neither of them were guilty, and ought not to be charged with the offence.
