Q: CHAPTER XXV

TWO DEER

"He was here, and you chased him away!" exclaimed Dave. "Have you any idea where he went to?"

"I think he took the trail back of the house; the one leading to Carpen Falls," answered Lester Lawrence. "I slipped on my most outlandish costume, and I must have scared him out of his wits, for he ran like a deer," he added, with a smile.

"In that case there is no use in our looking for him around here," announced Roger.

"I think I'll give the hunt up," said Phil. "Finding my uncle has changed matters completely. What I want to do is to send word to my father that my uncle is found. Then, as soon as he is able to travel, I'll leave you fellows and take him home."

"I think I'll be able to walk on the foot in a day or two," answered Lester Lawrence. "You see I can already hobble around. But that sprain was a pretty bad one, I can assure you!"

After this the situation was discussed for some time--in fact, until well after the noon hour. Then one of the boys suggested that they have dinner, and while Phil and his uncle continued to talk over their personal affairs, Dave and his chums set about getting ready the meal.

While all in the cabin partook of the midday meal, the boys told the hermit about their life in camp, and also of their adventures at Oak Hall and in other places. Lester Lawrence listened interestedly to the recital, and asked innumerable questions concerning their doings, and also questioned Phil regarding conditions at home.

Q: Leah Catches a Fish

Leah loved to eat fish as a young girl. She saw fish as good food. But she asked, "Where do fish come from?" "People have to catch them," Daddy said." Leah wanted to know how to catch a fish.

"People have caught fish from a pole, line, and hook for a long time," Daddy said." "I am about to show you how to that."

"Let's take a lunch with us," Daddy said. Leah chose some fries with ketchup and a bean sandwich. Leah also like sweets. She brought some candy bears. Leah has strange tastes.

Daddy drove to a nearby lake. It was early. Leah was yawning in daddy's car.

The people at the lake had special times for young people learning to fish. They talked with Leah about them. Leah was excited.

Daddy took Leah to a small spot on the lake. Daddy showed Leah how to put a worm on the hook as something to get the fish. Daddy said other like things like grasshoppers, corn, or tiny fish could also get the fish.

Leah lifted her pole and dropped her line in the water. The small red and white float was there on the water. It was easy to see that from the blue water and sunny sky.

Leah said, "Daddy I'm bored."

Daddy told her that sometimes you need to wait.

Q: In grammar, genitive (abbreviated ; also called the possessive case or second case) is the grammatical case that marks a noun as modifying another noun. It often marks a noun as being the possessor of another noun. However, it can also indicate various relationships other than possession: certain verbs may take arguments in the genitive case, and it may have adverbial uses ("see" Adverbial genitive).

Placing the modifying noun in the genitive case is one way to indicate that two nouns are related in a genitive construction. Modern English typically does not morphologically mark nouns for a genitive case in order to indicate a genitive construction; instead, it uses either the "" clitic or a preposition (usually "of"). However, the personal pronouns do have distinct possessive forms. There are various other ways to indicate a genitive construction, as well. For example, many Afroasiatic languages place the head noun (rather than the modifying noun) in the construct state.

Many languages have a genitive case, including Albanian, Arabic, Armenian, Basque, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, Georgian, German, Greek, Icelandic, Irish, Latin, Latvian, Lithuanian, Romanian, Sanskrit, Scottish Gaelic, Tamil, Telugu, Turkish and all Slavic languages except Bulgarian and Macedonian. English does not have a proper genitive case, but a possessive ending, "'s", although some pronouns have irregular possessive forms which may more commonly be described as genitives; see English possessive.

2. Many languages
3. not properly
