garment to the old squaw; as you may imagine; and when HE came at
last and rushed up to her; looking about ten years older in his
anxiety; she felt so faint again that they had to carry her to the
canoe。 For; you see; he knew nothing about the flood until he met
the Indians at Utopia; and knew by the signs that the poor woman
was his wife。 And at the next high tide he towed the tree away
back home; although it wasn't worth the trouble; and built another
house; using the old tree for the foundation and props; and called
it after her; 〃Mary's Ark!〃 But you may guess the next house was
built above high…water mark。 And that's all。
Not much; perhaps; considering the malevolent capacity of the
Dedlow Marsh。 But you must tramp over it at low water; or paddle
over it at high tide; or get lost upon it once or twice in the fog;
as I have; to understand properly Mary's adventure; or to
appreciate duly the blessings of living beyond High…Water Mark。
