Quote context

[...]

- And the Duchess directed Piney in the rearrangement of the interior with a taste and a tact that left her gaier still.

- That evening, when Mr. Oakhurst returned from yet another weary search for the trail...

- He heard the sound of singing and happy laughter echoed from the rocks.

- What's going on here? Everybody seems very happy.

- Why, hello, Mr. Oakhurst. I brought this old guitar along with me in my pack, and I was giving the ladies a bit of a tune to cheer them up.

- Did you find the trail?

- Sit down and have some supper, Mr. Oakhurst. It's good and warm here by the fire.

- Thanks, Piney, but I'm not really hungry.

- Not hungry? But you must be. You haven't eaten all day.

- Come on, have some of this cornbread.

- Just a bite, then. Thank you.
