"Red," Orrin said, "there's a fair land up north, a wide and beautiful land. It's a land with running water, clear streams, and grass hip-high to a tall elk. I tell you, Red, that's a country."
"And you know something, Red?" I put in my two-bits worth. "We think you should see it."
"We surely do." Orrin was dead serious. "We're going to miss you if you go, Red. But Red, you stay and we won't miss you."
