THE
MAN
OF
AFFAIRS
,
brusque
of
manner
,
but
big
of
heart
.
WESSNER
,
a
Dutch
timber
-
thief
who
wants
rascality
made
easy
.
BLACK
JACK
,
a
villain
to
whom
thought
of
repentance
comes
too
late
.
SEARS
,
camp
cook
.
Freckles
came
down
the
corduroy
that
crosses
the
lower
end
of
the
Limberlost
.
At
a
glance
he
might
have
been
mistaken
for
a
tramp
,
but
he
was
truly
seeking
work
.
He
was
intensely
eager
to
belong
somewhere
and
to
be
attached
to
almost
any
enterprise
that
would
furnish
him
food
and
clothing
.
Long
before
he
came
in
sight
of
the
camp
of
the
Grand
Rapids
Lumber
Company
,
he
could
hear
the
cheery
voices
of
the
men
,
the
neighing
of
the
horses
,
and
could
scent
the
tempting
odors
of
cooking
food
.
A
feeling
of
homeless
friendlessness
swept
over
him
in
a
sickening
wave
.
Without
stopping
to
think
,
he
turned
into
the
newly
made
road
and
followed
it
to
the
camp
,
where
the
gang
was
making
ready
for
supper
and
bed
.
The
scene
was
intensely
attractive
.
The
thickness
of
the
swamp
made
a
dark
,
massive
background
below
,
while
above
towered
gigantic
trees
.
The
men
were
calling
jovially
back
and
forth
as
they
unharnessed
tired
horses
that
fell
into
attitudes
of
rest
and
crunched
,
in
deep
content
,
the
grain
given
them
.
Duncan
,
the
brawny
Scotch
head
-
teamster
,
lovingly
wiped
the
flanks
of
his
big
bays
with
handfuls
of
pawpaw
leaves
,
as
he
softly
whistled
,
“
O
wha
will
be
my
dearie
,
O
!
”
and
a
cricket
beneath
the
leaves
at
his
feet
accompanied
him
.
The
green
wood
fire
hissed
and
crackled
merrily
.
Wreathing
tongues
of
flame
wrapped
around
the
big
black
kettles
,
and
when
the
cook
lifted
the
lids
to
plunge
in
his
testing
-
fork
,
gusts
of
savory
odors
escaped
.
Freckles
approached
him
.
“
I
want
to
speak
with
the
Boss
,
”
he
said
.
The
cook
glanced
at
him
and
answered
carelessly
:
“
He
can
’
t
use
you
.
