His face was yellow, and his hair had grown noticeably grayer.The woman fairly flung the ill-cooked food upon the table, with a spitefulness she did not try to conceal.

He knew that the Interior Department had sent an agent out to investigate that complaint, and that the agent had gone his way rejoicing and reporting that all was well with the Indian and honest with the contractor. It was not true. Every[Pg 270] one who knew anything about it knew that. Cairness supposed that also was the work of the politicians.
