Well, if you'll give it your milk ---we've got nothing else to feed it.
Come on, boy. We've got to get riding.
Jody is getting ready to go..
Liuku: 2
Now ready to go to find the fawn.
You'll not be gone long?
I'll be back before dinner for sure.
Jody is now going to find the fawn.
Liuku: 3
Searching for the fawn in forest with Mill-wheel.
We'll find him if he's alive. How you know it's a he?
Do you think the fawn's still there? Will you help me find him?
The spots were all in a line. On a doe-fawn, Pa says the spots are every which way...
Mill-wheel mounted his horse and pulled Jody up behind him.
Liuku: 4
Jody going in the forest with Mill-wheel.
Cut to the north, Mill-wheel. It was up here that Pa got bitten by the snake and killed the doe and I saw the fawn.
Jody is telling something to Mill-wheel.
Liuku: 5
Jody is saying to leave him alone to find the fawn in forest to Mill-wheel.
I'll take care. It might take me a long time to find the fawn, if he's wandered. Leave me off right here.
It's not far now, but the scrub is very thick for a horse. I can make it on foot.
But I'm afraid to leave you, boy. Suppose you got lost or got bitten by the snake, too?
Suddenly Jody was unwilling to have Mill-wheel with him. If the fawn was dead, or could not be found, he could not have his disappointment seen. And if the fawn was there, the meeting would be so lovely and so secret that he could not endure to share it.
Liuku: 6
Mill-wheel agrees to leave Jody alone to find the fawn in forest.
All right, but you take it easy now. You know north here, and east?
There, and there. That tall pine makes a bearing. So long. So long, Mill-wheel. I'm obliged.
