"Sure it was signed to-day? Couldn't it have been ante-dated?" "You know better than I do. When was it signed?" Fendrick laughed. He was watching the noted officer of rangers with narrowed wary eyes. "On advice of counsel I decline to answer." "Sorry, Cass. That leaves me only one thing to do. You're under arrest." "For what?" demanded the sheepman sharply.
The result of this happy-go-lucky entrance for examination was the unlooked-for success of our "unbruised youth with unstuffed brain," who passed second out of seven hundred and eighteen candidates, among whom, by the way, were twenty-eight University candidates. As a reward for his brilliancy, B.-P. was informed by the Duke of Cambridge that his commission would be ante-dated two years.
A low-browed man was Lemoal, sapped and ruthless, but certainly he had adventured. Was the Bella Union Theater still there in Frisco? Did they still fight in Bottle Meyers, and was his friend Tasset on the police force yet? His memories of San Francisco ante-dated mine. He had been a hoodlum there, and had helped to hang Chinese.

"I may get your commission ante-dated. I haven't all the papers here, but give me an address where I can find you at once, and you shall have them this afternoon. I'll get the Colonel to send them to the Territorial Association to-morrow, and probably in about a month you'll be in the Gazette. I don't know when Colonel Hullocher will want you to report for duty, but I shall see him to-day.
"Nor has she any debts; these bills are shams. They must have been ante-dated, for they were really executed yesterday. It's a bad business, and she may have to pay dearly for it." "But in the meanwhile I am in prison." "Never mind, trust to me, I will see you again tomorrow." This scurvy trick had made me angry, and I made up my mind to take up the poor man's cause.
