It might not last us more than a day.”He turns back to his troupe and points down the hill toward a barn. “Go get the deer skinned right away. Half of you start tanning, the other half start cooking. We need the hide for blankets and the meat for dinner. Preserve the bison in salt and pop the deer into a big pot with whatever vegetables we got. Stew tonight.”“Yes sir.”“And get some extra help too. We gotta act fast. I reckon everyone is hungry.”We all are. Joseph and John catch up.“Excellent work.” John commends.“What would we do without you, Jacob?” Joseph asks.
