Raley blurted out at last. "If I wanted him!" retorted Haig ironically. "I bargained for him with you, didn't I?" "Yes," growled Raley. "And you went and caught him for me?" "Yes." "And you brought him to Paradise Park for me?" "Yes." "Very well. Don't be downhearted!" he said cheerfully. "A good name is more to be desired than great riches. Isn't that so, Cousin Seth?"
But he took the precaution to confirm 'Red's' story at the post-office. Thompson himself had seen Sunnysides, still going like the wind. Tom Banks came in a little later with news of the outlaw well up the road toward Norton's, and Haig after him. So there's no doubt the way they've gone. But it's a losing game if Sunnysides can keep up the speed he was hitting when he was last seen."
The only other incidents of importance during May were an inspection by Sir Douglas Haig and the farewell inspection and address on the 16th by Brig.-Gen. Shea prior to his departure to take over command of the 30th Division. He was succeeded by Brig.-Gen. Westmorland.
These relief designs are the work of Haig Patigian of San Francisco. This great archway is one of the most interesting achievements, from an architectural standpoint, to be found at the Exposition. The space covered is large, yet so cleverly handled that no bareness is suggested.
Then Haig's and Pete's pipes were lighted; and the Indian must tell them again the story of the rescue; and let the wind howl its savagest! "Poor Claire!" said Marion, with a tremulous little laugh, when Pete told her how the knapsack was packed. And Haig looked across at her dizzily, as if the fumes of the strong tobacco had gone to his head.
The Heavy Line Shows the Position of the Hostile Armies, When the Austrians Threatened A New Drive in 1918. For the first time since the war began England celebrated on November the victory of Field Marshal Haig and General Byng at Cambrai, in the old-fashioned way, by the ringing of bells in London and other cities.
Yet another terrifying experience awaited her, not terrifying in the sense of any peril to herself so much as in its vivid suggestion of peril to Philip Haig. Without warning there came a prodigious crash of thunder; very near, it seemed.
And yet the room seemed to be extraordinarily empty, as it had never been before his illness. The stillness rather oppressed him. Damn it all, sickness did strange things to a man! Took a lot out of him! He straightened himself in his chair. Presently Jim entered. "Well, Jim!" said Haig. "Here we are again, eh? I'm hungry." "You eat, she come back," Jim answered shrewdly.
From the top of the ridge, Haig saw the outlaw picking his way through a wilderness of rocks that had the grewsome aspect of a cemetery the graveyard of the gods. Following through this depressing scene, he lost sight of Sunnysides, and on emerging upon another floor-like expanse of solid stone he received a surprise that caused him to rein up Trixy with a jerk.
"You didn't really think you could do it again, did you?" he said. "But he's a hellyun, though, ain't he!" ejaculated Curly, bracing himself on his rope. The horse was allowed to rise; Haig climbed cautiously into the saddle once more; and the same tense silence as the first ensued, while Sunnysides waited, as if for inspiration. Then it was on as before, but with accentuated fury.
