Glen was seized with a paralyzing terror. This constable or sheriff or whatever he was had only to reach around the corner to lay hands right on him. He forgot all about revenge on Matt what he now wanted was to get away. Then he heard the officer's next question. "This Glen Mason fellow you speak about is he one of your regular scouts?"

The means of communication with the United States were very precarious, and I suggested to Colonel Mason that a special courier ought to be sent; that Second-Lieutenant Loeser had been promoted to first-lieutenant, and was entitled to go home. He was accordingly detailed to carry the news.

This, when I withdrew from the house on the 1st of June following, I left in the hands of George Mason, and it was passed on the 26th of that month. In giving this account of the laws, of which I was myself the mover and draughtsman, I by no means mean to claim to myself the merit of obtaining their passage.

"No, you mustn't do that," said Nan. "Don't you remember how you once tried to jump a hundred, and you fainted?" "Indeed I do," said Grace. "I'm not going to be so silly as to try that again. We'll only jump a little." Soon Nan and her chums were having good time in the yard. Charley Mason, with whom Bert sometimes played, came over, and the two boys went for a row on the lake, in Bert's boat.

He was checking his baggage to Walla Walla. "Going right through to Walla Walla?" said I. "Yes," he said, "can I do anything for you?" "Well, since you have mentioned it, you can," I answered. I introduced myself, told my new friend Mason was his name, Billie Mason how I was fixed and that I would give him a note to my customer, McPherson, at Walla Walla, requesting him to pay back the money.

Washington was the greatgrandson of a royalist, who took refuge in Virginia during the commonwealth. George Mason was the descendant of a colonel, who fought for Charles II. Edmond Pendleton was of royalist origin, and lived and died a most uncompromising churchman. Richard Henry Lee, who moved the Declaration, was of the family of Richard Lee, who had gone to invite Charles II. to Virginia.

"You want ten minutes, huh? Ten minutes for what? I thought there was something funny going on when we missed the Polaris with that bomb!" "You knew all along I didn't have anything to do with that crash back on the station, didn't you?" shouted Roger. His eyes blazed angrily. "Yeah. So what?" growled Loring. "Hey, Mason," he yelled over his shoulder, "get up here in a hurry! We gotta work fast!"

The old woman is half demented, the whole family was queer, and the girl the queerest of all won't talk and keeps her mouth shut as to her marriage, if there was one." "Who was the man?" Mr. Mason asked, and the landlord replied, "Some Northern cuss she met in Georgia where she was staying a spell with her kin. A high blood, they say.

I don't think we shall want more than that, Mr. Mason." There was a tone of triumph in the man's voice, and a look of gratified malice in his countenance which disgusted Mr. Round and irritated him almost beyond his power of endurance. It was quite true that he would much have preferred to find that the woman's evidence was in favour of Lady Mason.

From these he replenished the number of his clergy, which had been reduced by the drowning of Mason, and by the withdrawal of two other priests to England. With the ordination of these students closed the first session of the college. The bishop had arranged to spend each winter with his students, and each summer in travelling about the diocese and planting out those whom he had ordained.
