"I should advise you to draw up a memorial to them, pointing out their want of thought and care; and suggesting that, in every room, there should be a printed reminder that mackintoshes and ground sheets are essential, in a campaign in Western Africa in the wet season." "Yes, and cocoa and tea," Hallett said, with a laugh.
So, being obliged to borrow, he sought out Captain Hallett, got the shrewd old light keeper's cupidity aroused not a very difficult task at any time and Captain Jethro agreed to help finance the deal. "It didn't need a whole lot of real money," explained Martha.
He heard the light keeper laugh sardonically. "Ho, ho, ho," chuckled Hallett. "You're a slick article, ain't you, Raish? Why, you wooden-headed swab, did you cal'late you was the only one that had heard about the directors' meetin' over to the Denboro Trust Company yesterday?
I have had a very pleasant evening, very pleasant indeed." Martha Phipps and her lodger, to say nothing of Lulie Hallett, were fearful of the effect which the eventful seance might have upon the light keeper. It was with considerable foreboding that Martha called Lulie up on the telephone the next morning. But the news she received in answer to her call was reassuring.

Through the influence of William Hallett Phillips, a deceased member of the Club, a few lines inserted in an act passed by Congress March 3, 1891, permitted the establishment of forest reserves, and Hon. John W. Noble, then Secretary of the Interior, at once recommended the application of the law to a number of forest tracts, which were forthwith set aside by Presidential proclamation.
This had the effect of moving the McMurdo waypoint 25 nautical miles to the west and once in the aircraft's system the navigation track which then it would follow from Cape Hallett when under automatic control would be over the Sound rather than directly to Williams Field.
It was in the corner and Mr. Hallett took it and and I couldn't say anything 'cause Mrs. Hobbs said I mustn't speak a word at the funeral. And and he set in it and it played and Oh, don't let him put me in jail! Please don't." Another burst of tears. Mary-'Gusta clung tightly to the Hamilton jacket. Judge Baxter looked as if a light had suddenly broken upon the darkness of his mind.
