In Ouray, Colorado, the baggageman allowed his trunk to fall from a great height, and so the lid was knocked off and the bust which the professor used in his lecture was busted. He therefore had to borrow a bald-headed man to act as bust for him in the evening.
To the boy the tales were very real and full of meaning. He began to admire the fat unclean-looking man and, in the afternoon when Will Henderson had gone, looked forward with keen interest to the doctor's coming. Doctor Parcival had been in Winesburg about five years. He came from Chicago and when he arrived was drunk and got into a fight with Albert Longworth, the baggageman.
Of these leaders Frank P. Sargent served from 1886 until 1892, when he was appointed Commissioner General of Immigration by President Roosevelt. Since 1909, William S. Carter has been president of the Brotherhood. Born in Texas in 1859, he began railroading at nineteen years of age and served in turn as fireman, baggageman, and engineer.
As he made his way among the trunks and boxes, the train lurched and the baggageman who had his back to Bailey heard him catch himself. He turned and leaped to his feet. Bailey closed with him instantly. Over and over they rolled. Bailey had already drawn his revolver before he left his hiding-place.
More time had been spent in overcoming the baggageman than he expected and Bailey had to work quickly. He dragged the trunk marked "E. Dodge" from the pile to the door and glanced out. Just around the curve in the railroad, Del Mar was waiting, straining his eyes down the track. There was the train, puffing up the grade. As it approached he rose and waved his arms.
Was another grimy wilderness of brick his destination? Had the baggageman closed the door forever on all he loved in the world? The train slowed up, stopped. The baggageman opened the door and dropped to the ground. They were in the country and the sun had set. Through the door the dog looked across a dusky field to a black horizon of forest. Above this forest flamed a scarlet glow.
Grace was always so ingenious.... Oh, there's the train good-by, darling! Be a good girl!" Joy was aghast. "Grandmother!" she began. "Oh, Grandmother. I have to tell you! ... I oh, John, tell her! I can't go! She turned to Hewitt despairingly. But he had not been listening: he had been watching the argument between Philip and the baggageman.
A sharp approaching whistle, an ever-loudening roar in that brooding silence out there aroused him to a sense of his surroundings. A telegraph pole that had stood black athwart the glow began to move backward. The silhouette of the baggageman rose in the doorway. The dog gathered himself together and leaped.
The only way they left the troupe and its cages was by dying. Nor did Michael know even as little as the baggageman knew. He knew nothing save that here reigned pain and woe and that it seemed he was destined to share the same fate. Into the midst of them, when with more howlings and yelpings they were loaded into the baggage car, was Michael's cage piled.
