Select the correct text in the passage. in this excerpt from away in the wilderness by r. m. ballantyne, which line shows the setting? on a beautiful summer evening, not many years ago, a man was seen to ascend the side of a little mound or hillock, on the top of which he lingered to gaze upon the wild scenery that lay stretched out before him. the man wore the leather coat and leggings of a north american hunter, or trapper, or backwoodsman; and well did he deserve all these titles, for jasper derry was known to his friends as the best hunter, the most successful trapper, and the boldest man in the backwoods. jasper was big and strong as well as bold, but he was not a bully. men of true courage are in general peacefully disposed. jasper could fight like a lion when there was occasion to do so; but he was gentle and grave, and quiet by nature. he was also extremely good-humored; had a low soft voice, and, both in mind and body, seemed to delight in a state of repose. we have said that his coat was made of leather; the moccasins or indian shoes on his feet were made of the same material. when jasper first put them on they were soft like a glove of chamois leather, and bright yellow; but hard service had turned them into a dirty brown, which looked more business like. the sun had burned his face and hands to as deep a brown as his coat. on his head he wore a little round cap, which he had made with his own hands, after having caught the black fox that supplied the fur, in one of his own traps.
