The depths of elemental immortality, of self-deceit and revenge, lie in our eagerness to judge one another, and to force one another under the yoke of our judgments. When there is the faith of the Son of man in the world, life will be left to make its own judgments. The only judgment we have a right to make upon one another is the free and truthful living of our own lives." George D. Herron.
"Unless," he murmured, suddenly inspired to madness, "unless " Miss Herron readjusted the dust cloth. The boy felt a quick irritation at her apparent inattention; but the purpose, born of her apparent readiness to hear and approve him, held. "I want Lucy to go, too, Miss Herron," he announced, bluntly enough. "Indeed!" "Lucy!" he cried. "I do love her so! Please say that I can have her.
Miss Herron felt as she did the first time she descended in the express elevator of a high office building. She was conscious that her hat was tugging at its pins. She settled herself back deeper in the seat and braced her feet stiffly, only to bounce up as they ran over some stick. "Oh!" she gasped. "Ahem!" "Sit tight," counseled Archie, suavely.
Only twice since the first of June did Miss Herron fail in her promise to Lucy's father and to herself. And these occasions had been within the last ten days, when her old neuralgia had laid her low. What her charge was up to at those times, Miss Herron did not care to inquire.
The records of his court will show that he fulfilled his promise, as not one of the guilty has been prosecuted. "In reference to Andrew J. Herron, Attorney-General of the State of Louisiana, I considered it his duty to indict these men before this criminal court.
But inside the wigwam Dick Herron lay helpless, his hands clenched, his eyes glaring red with an impatience he seemed to hold his breath to repress. Time was to be passed. That was all he knew, all he thought about, all he cared. He seized the minutes grimly and flung them behind him. So absorbed was he in this, that he seemed to give grudgingly and hastily his attention to anything else.
He made a mental promise never to forget this man's kindness and tact. "Oldport! It wouldn't take us an hour; and it's the best piece of road in the State." "The idea!" exclaimed Miss Herron, gently scornful. "In an automobile!" "Please come," he begged. "It would be such an honor, and a pleasure, too." "I should prefer the train."
If this is not true, gentlemen, deny it. Otherwise one day you will surely have an explosion." Whether these grave innuendoes, together with the statement made by Mr. George Herron, the incident of the Banat Republic and the ultimatum respecting the oil-fields unofficially presented to the Rumanians suffice to establish a prima facie case may safely be left to the judgment of the public.
And then the agent, fired into an expansive cheerfulness by her kindness, said that which won him the mysterious present he received the following Christmas. "Why can't you take Miss Herron over, Mr. Fraser hey? I guess that there autobile " "That " "Autobile," repeated the agent, sturdily. "She'll beat most o' the trains on this road." "The very thing!"
Ord, the proper commander of the Thirteenth Corps, took sick leave, and the corps came to Louisiana under the command of Washburn, with Benton, Herron, Lee and Lawler commanding the divisions, and Colonel Mudd the brigade of cavalry. All told, the effective strength of the corps was 778 officers and 13,934 men; total, 14,712.
