It was getting back to the beginning to the source where he could start fresh. It was here, and here alone, that he could write his letter to her. Perhaps here he could make something out of the chaos of his thoughts. When he reached the top of the stairs, he paused before the closed door. He did not expect Barstow to be in. He hoped that he was not. He did not wish to face him to-day.
Barstow was asleep in his bunk below, while Molly and Dick were too busy watching the effect of the moonlight on the breaking waves and the distant keys to notice that anything unusual was happening.
"You 're heading for a worse place than the hospital." "But where the devil has he gone? He was here a minute ago, was n't he?" "Easy, easy," soothed Barstow. "Hold tight!" "Find him, won't you, Barstow? Won't you find him?" To quiet him Barstow whistled. The dog pounded his tail on the floor under the lounge. "He 's under there," said Barstow.
We allowed that the school was getting too large for you to tackle, I mean, you know, to superintend single-handed; and that these Pike County boys they're running in on us are a little too big and sassy for a lady like you to lasso and throw down I mean, to sorter control don't you see? But, bless you, Sam Barstow saw it all in a minit! He just jumped at it.
Barstow took out his watch and squatting nearer him studied him with interest. Suddenly the dog's legs crumpled beneath him. He tried to stand, to make his way to his master, but instantly toppled over on his side. Donaldson reached for him. That which he lifted was like a limp glove. He drew back from it in horror, glancing up at Barstow.
Adelaide is young yet and we respect her reticence, but her mother and I have both given our consent and Professor Barstow has every reason to be satisfied with the reception he invariably receives from Adelaide.
Jewell on board, please?" she asked, with a smile. "Jewell?" repeated the skipper. "Jewell? Don't know the name." "He was on board," said the girl, somewhat taken aback. "This is the Elizabeth Barstow, isn't it?" "What's his Christian name," inquired the skipper, thoughtfully. "Albert," replied the girl. "Bert," she added, as the other shook his head. "Oh, the cook!" said the skipper.
"You must know 'red-hot' Barstow, Captain Chayne," he cried, slapping the little man lustily on the back. "One of the very best. You are both brethren of the sword." Barstow sniggered obsequiously and screwed his eye-glass into his eye. "Delighted, I am sure. But I sheathed the sword some time ago, Captain Chayne." "And exchanged it for the betting book," Chayne added, quietly.
Barstow, I cannot apply your systematic theology to all of God's creatures any more than I could apply a rigid and carefully lined-out system of parental affection and government to your household. I know that you love all of your children, both when they are good and when they are bad, and that you are ever trying to help the naughty ones to be better.
When he looked again, the majestic sweep of distance gave him a satisfied feeling of freedom from the crowded pettinesses of the city. For the first time since trouble met him in the trail between Victorville and Barstow, Casey heaved a sigh of content because he was once more out in the big land he loved.
