Emma grewrestless too, and snapped Geoffrey into silence.
James tried to make friends with Larry, but it was not easy. You seem to forget thatIm not here on charity.
Oughta see them myalls down the coast fishin.
We usta have the best stockyard round here, Sambo said. That drivel of Gurseys wont help you much when youre bosshere, she said. It was not that they expected Cabell to get up and belt James.
He hesitated, thinking of the long legs sprawledacross the top of the stairs where he must go.
He wanted to chatterto his father, press himself close to his mother. You didnt hear tell of railways comingout this way, did you? Thatimage of her father abandoned in violence would never be wiped out. Bellamy drank himself out ofBlack Rock and one of the new agricultural companies bought it.
The times conspired to bemuse him with a falsesecurity.
Miss Todd couldnt find Jimmie thismorning.
Hepicked her up and kissed her on the lax mouth. Thatimage of her father abandoned in violence would never be wiped out. CHAPTER SIX: IDEALGeoffrey was no comfort to his loneliness among these self-engrossed adults.
James glanced at the house where his father sat in the rocking-chair with Harriet on his knee. If Sambos alarums had disturbed him at all it would have been onlyfor the moment. Id be ashamed to nip ye for one thing more if itwasnt for matches. He seemed anxious, andpaced up and down the veranda looking out at the valley.

James glanced at the house where his father sat in the rocking-chair with Harriet on his knee. The darkness came in from the east like a tide, in long, slow,peaceful waves. You better get some real work andlearn how to be boss. So Mrs Todd departed next morning, protesting feebly the deceit andinjustice of Cabell.
It was not that they expected Cabell to get up and belt James.
When Cabell came near the bed sheedged towards her mother. Suddenly it sheered off andmade, head down, for the scrub by the river. Now there was a revolution at Cabells Reach.
That drivel of Gurseys wont help you much when youre bosshere, she said. Oh, well, one of them would have toget it.
