The ordering of the house kept me busy the next forenoon, but after
dinner I told Cale I was going over to Mere Guillardeau's to tell her
about her brother.
"I may go as far as the village, Cale. Don't expect me till just
before supper."
"All right."
I told but half of the truth. I determined to carry out a part of what
I planned on that voyage down the Saguenay. If there were anything to
learn from Mere Guillardeau, that would throw light on that "forest
episode" connected with my mother, I wanted to know what it was.
