Excerpt from An Army Mule
Rufe Holt, Job's orphan chore-boy, his wide-brimmed straw hat pushed far back on his head, his brown, bare toes curled round the rungs of the chair in which he was Sitting, and his hands thrust behind the bib of his old blue overalls, looked on with dejected eyes. Rufe was sure that Job would now give up the farm, and go to live in the village, and that, consequently, he would have no longer any use for a chore-boy.
