The King Apollo, with an arrow, freed / From his strong string, destroy’d the Dragoness
I should explain wangan. It is an Indian word, and can mean almost anything, like the Latin res. It can mean a camp or building. Pond-in-the-River wangan—or Pondy wangan, as the drivers call it—is a long, low shack a third of a mile above us, where the Rapid River crew lives during the drive. There is a sign in the bunk-house that reads, Wangan open an hour after supper. That refers to the store where the cook sells candy, tobacco, snuff, and clothing. (It really is a big box in the kitchen ….) The cook may say, I lost my wangan when the work boat swamped, and that means that his dishes are at the bottom of the lake. Or he may complain, The wangan's runnin' low, meaning this time that he's short of food. Or a man may take his wangan and fly—leave the job with his little bundle of personal belongings. You can tell only by the context what the word means, and it's a very convenient word to know."
