I think that in this passage the phrase "pack through" means carrying one's belongings on saddle packs on the horses and leaving the wagons (covered wagons?) behind to travel faster to get to the California gold fields sooner. Mr Johnson decided not to travel this way and instead harnessed his horse to the Frink's wagon and they continued as before. The following excerpt intimates what "pack through" means without actually saying it in those many words. "<span>Mr. Wand and his company have left their wagons here and made pack-saddles, intending to pack their clothing, blankets, provisions, and cooking utensils on their animals, in order to travel faster".</span>
Answer:
"Don't make me angry," Harry shouted, "or I'll really lose it!"
"You go look for Hagrid," said Hermoine.
Explanation:
In American English, these are the rules when it comes to the ways quotation marks and other punctuation marks are written:
- Commas and periods always go inside the quotation marks <em>("You go look for Hagrid</em><em>,</em><em>" said Hermoine.)</em>
- Dashes, colons, and semicolons almost always go outside the quotation marks.
- Question marks and exclamation marks sometimes go inside and sometimes stay outside.
When you're splitting a quotation in half, you should add a comma after the speaker to separate the speaker from the second part of the quote <em>("Don't make me angry</em><em>,</em><em>" Harry shouted</em><em>,</em><em> "or I'll really lose it!").</em>
