Fenn jumped as if a gun had been cocked behind him, and wheeled around. A man so nervous as that may be either cowardly or dangerous. There are mighty few cowards in the moun- tains, and subsequent events proved that he was not one of them. 226 OUR SOUTHERN HIGHLANDERS Night was fast coming on. We finally asked Fenn outright if he would let us have some- thing to eat. He muttered an excuse, but con- sulted his wife. She did not welcome the sug- gestion, but said she could give us "a cold bite. ..." And she did not even warm the coffee. Now, I have had years of association with mountain people of every degree, and this was the first time I ever was made to feel unwel- come. But it was also the first time I had ever appeared among them as a man-hunter. And I will confess right here that, under the circum- stances, I did not blame the Sugarlanders. When we offered pay for our food the Fenns would not take a cent. They directed us to the next house, but made no suggestion as to where we might find lodging for the night.
