For many years, therefore, much less was heard of the Hentys than of those who had merely followed their steps.
Me and Batman he's riding on the dash." Joe gave Morgan the cassette from the Weston Priory. "Try this some stormy night." "O.K.," Morgan said. "The damnedest thing . . . I bought a tape of Chesapeake Bay sea chanteys a while back. One of the voices was familiar. I looked on the picture of the group and there was Jason! I hadn't even noticed." "Best banjo player I ever heard," Joe said.
Then the head spy, the Belgian private, who had his headquarters in the Strafe-Barrack, showed us many little kindnesses. He had as his batman one of the prisoners whose term of punishment had expired, and Bromley, who was always quick-witted and on the alert, offered himself for the job, and was taken, and in that way various little favors came to us that we should not otherwise have had.
"Angus," said Tam to his batman, "while A'm bravin' the terrors of the foorth dimension in the morn " "Is that the new scoutin' machine, Sergeant?" demanded the interested batman. "The foorth dimension, ma puir frien', is a tairm applied by philosophers of the Royal Flyin' Coop to the space between France an' heaven." "Oh, you mean the hair!" said the disappointed servant.
He was feeling the reaction of the morning's thrill, and when he landed he had no answer to make to the congratulations which were poured upon him. He made his way to his hut. His batman was cleaning a pair of boots and stood stiffly as Tam entered. "That'll do, Angus, ye may go," he said, and then saw the folded coat upon his bed.

Joe took the doll and a Napoleon Bonaparte mystery out on the lanai. "Batman, someone is here to meet you."
After dismissal, the men went to their huts and were soon busy giving themselves a "high mark scrub" preliminary to the hot bath and "jungle hunt" in which they would indulge themselves to-morrow. As Barry was moving off the parade ground, the junior major caught up to him, and took him by the arm and said: "I have sent around my batman to your hut.
"Yes; get a whisky and soda and a straw, if there's one left." The booming died away. A few minutes later the Staff, ably assisted by the General's batman, got one end of the straw into the worthy Brigadier's mouth. The Colonel closed those holes he could see with his fingers, and the signalling officer held the drink. "Now, are we ready?" cried the Brigade-Major anxiously. "All right, sir suck."
"When I was in France," said Tommy reminiscently, "whenever my batman failed to call me, he always said that he had come over queer. I never believed it. But whether he felt it or not, there IS such a sensation. I've got it now! Badly!" He looked at the rock with a kind of agonized passion. "Damn it!" he cried. "It's impossible! Five years!
