said
Phelim
,
as
,
no
longer
in
fear
of
being
shot
down
in
his
tracks
,
he
ran
straight
across
the
lawn
,
and
carried
out
to
the
letter
,
the
parting
injunctions
of
Zeb
Stump
.
The
Mexican
maiden
hitherto
held
silent
by
surprise
,
remained
so
,
on
perceiving
the
absolute
idleness
of
speech
.
Further
conversation
was
out
of
the
question
.
What
with
the
screaming
of
the
mare
--
continuous
from
the
moment
the
spinous
crupper
was
inserted
under
her
tail
--
the
loud
trampling
of
her
hoofs
as
she
"
cavorted
"
over
the
turf
--
the
dismal
howling
of
the
hound
--
and
the
responsive
cries
of
the
wild
forest
denizens
--
birds
,
beasts
,
insects
,
and
reptiles
--
only
the
voice
of
a
Stentor
could
have
been
heard
!
What
could
be
the
purpose
of
the
strange
proceeding
?
How
was
it
to
terminate
?
Isidora
looked
on
in
silent
astonishment
.
She
could
do
nothing
else
.
So
long
as
the
infernal
fracas
continued
,
there
was
no
chance
to
elicit
an
explanation
from
the
queer
creature
who
had
caused
it
He
had
returned
to
the
door
of
the
jacalé
;
and
once
more
taken
his
stand
upon
the
threshold
;
where
he
stood
,
with
the
tranquil
satisfied
air
of
an
actor
who
has
completed
the
performance
of
his
part
in
the
play
,
and
feels
free
to
range
himself
among
the
spectator
.
For
full
ten
minutes
was
the
wild
chorus
kept
up
,
the
mare
all
the
time
squealing
like
a
stuck
pig
;
while
the
dog
responded
in
a
series
of
lugubrious
howls
,
that
reverberated
along
the
cliffs
on
both
sides
of
the
creek
.
To
the
distance
of
a
mile
might
the
sounds
have
been
heard
;
and
as
Zeb
Stump
was
not
likely
to
be
so
far
from
the
hut
,
he
would
be
certain
to
hear
them
.
Convinced
of
this
,
and
that
the
hunter
would
soon
respond
to
the
signal
he
had
himself
arranged
,
Phelim
stood
square
upon
the
threshold
,
in
hopes
that
the
lady
visitor
would
stay
outside
--
at
least
,
until
he
should
be
relieved
of
the
responsibility
of
admitting
her
.
Notwithstanding
her
earnest
protestations
of
amity
,
he
was
still
suspicious
of
some
treasonable
intention
towards
his
master
;
else
why
should
Zeb
have
been
so
particular
about
being
summoned
back
?
