"I'll make a stand at the cross-roads yonder. Atwell shall plant the guns and give them canister. It is nearly night if we could hold them off one hour " Richard Cleave, pressing very close with his skirmishers, lost sight of the blue infantry now behind an orchard-clad undulation. "Billy Maydew! come climb this tree and tell me what you see." Billy went up the roadside locust like a squirrel.
I've always felt ten times more supple after a rattling good gallop with Ath and Archie, or half a dozen games of tennis, than after I've turned and twisted myself into bowline-knots with Miss Atwell. Oh, how I miss the old good times, Uncle Athol! Why can't Ath come to see me or I go to see him sometimes? If they'd only let me I'd never think of running away as I did that day."

"I believe I could give a pootty good guess if I had the facts." Clementina innocently gave them to him, and he listened with a well-affected sympathy. "Say Fane fust told you about 'em?" "Yes. 'He'e's a package for you, he said. Just that way; and he couldn't tell me who left it, or anything." "Anybody asked him about it since?" "Oh, yes! Mrs. Milray, and Mrs. Atwell, and Mr.

I immediately volunteered for this job, and shook hands with Atwell, and went to the rear to give my name to the officers in charge of the raiding party. I was accepted, worse luck. At 9:40 that night we reported to the Brigade Headquarters dugout to receive instructions from Old Pepper.
