"Well, that's the way with a coloured man when he gets a start." But they did not know Asbury Robinson yet. He was a man of surprises, and they were destined to disappointment. He did not move uptown. He built an office in a small open space next his shop, and there hung out his shingle. "I will never desert the people who have done so much to elevate me," said Mr. Asbury.
Hawkridge levelled his glass. While thus engaged, Capt. Asbury signalled to his men to mount and be ready to move on a moment's call. It was well to be ready for any emergency. Dick Hawkridge studied the horsemen closely for some minutes without speaking.

It was across this that Jennie Whitney descried, two days before, the return of her friends with the body of her father.
