John, she said, was the handsomest lad her eyes had ever rested upon! And wasn t she proud of her big nephew, when Aunt Jeannie explained him to her! Rob made himself at home in the very first minute. He built up the fire, and helped pare the potatoes, and stirred the corn-pone, and put it to baking the Indian girls looking on helplessly, and dinner was the same as ready, before we women had the long tables set. Aunt Jeannie knew how to make herself beloved. THE LONG FAREWELL 133 She brought wi...th her a crock full of raisin pudding, enough so each one of the eighty children should have a generous helping. All through the meal they had been on their best behavior, but when the pudding came, they forgot "manners, " and gobbled it down, and nudged each others elbows, and stole each others portion, just as if they had been nice civilized white children! We spent several hours at the Mission, watching the pupils at work, and hearing them at their lessons. They sang for us, in English and in their own tongue; and I persuaded one of them, not so bashful as the others, to spell out for me a verse of one of their Shawnee hymns.
