His father had been a man who talked of his work and his life, and he was a man who had known men and stock, who had pioneered in wild country. Had he been trying even then, to instruct his son? After all, what did a father have to pass on to his childen but his own presonal reaction to the world? Of what use was experience if one could not pass on at least a little of what one had learned?
