Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mistress of the Ranch: A Novel Ph be Ellen- bounced off the train and squared herself on the depot platform, one foot in advance of the other. "Well, where is he?" she demanded. Anny, having remained till a full stop made her descent from the car less spectacular, had to walk some distance down the planking before coming up with her sister. They appeared of about the same age, but Anny was not so blond, and her eyes were larger and calmer. Her month, too, wore a look of habitual repose, while Ph be Ellen's always seemed quivering under the strain of aggressive speech. They halted side by side near the station building, with their oil-cloth satchels in their hands. "Not a waggin in sight!" continued Ph be Ellen, stabbing her eyes into the distance on all sides. "Didn't he say he'd meet us to the train? Wasn't them his words? Where's that letter? Oh, ye needn't hunt it up. I know he said he'd meet us to the train. I've seen folks in my time't didn't know a promise from their own laziness, 'n' made shore they was doin' all they ever said they would when they sot aroun' wonderin' why folks wa'n't satisfied. Well" (she deposited her satchel on the platform with an energy which seemed to distrust the ability of gravity alone to perform that function), "here we be, but where's Sam Tinker?"
