[...]

- What's this nonsense about Uncle Billy coming back with provisions? Why, you know darn well we'll never see him again.

- Sure I know, Mother, but don't let on to the kids. They'll find out the truth about all of us when they find out anything. And there's no good scaring them now.

- But they know he's gone and taken the mules.

- Yeah.

- Well, I told them I'd guessed he must have wandered from the camp and stampeded them accidentally.

- I told them he'd likely be back when he'd caught them again, if he ever did.

- And they believe that?

- Kids can believe anything.

- They don't have to believe that a man can be as mean and bad as that.

- Oh, that old...!

- Now, if you'll stop all this cussing, they'll believe what we seem to believe.

- Well, we ain't likely to starve for quite a while yet, ma'am. There's plenty of food to last us for a day or two if we go easy on it.

- We'll have a good camp for a week, and then the snow will melt and we'll all go back to get it.

- Not to Poker Flat we won't.

- No, we'll all go back to Sandy Bar.
