LICHTENBERG. A conspicuous little ring-plain, about 12 miles in diameter, in an isolated position on the Mare, some distance N. of Briggs. It was here that Madler records having occasionally noticed a pale reddish tint, which, though often searched for, has not been subsequently seen. ULUGH BEIGH. A good-sized ring-plain, E. of the last, with a bright border and central mountain.
He re-edited the star-catalogues of Ptolemy, Ulugh Beigh, Tycho Brahe, Hevelius, Halley, Flamsteed, Lacaille, and Mayer; calculated the eclipse of Thales and the eclipse of Agathocles, and vindicated the memory of the first Astronomer Royal. But he was no less active in meeting present needs than in revising past performances.
Suddenly the train of his thoughts was interrupted by a low "stt stt" from the one little, high, grated window of the jail. The prisoner looked up quickly, and saw the shadow of a man's head outside the grating. "Hello!" whispered Beigh, hurrying under the window. "Are you alone?" inquired the shadow. "Yes," replied the prisoner. "All right, then," whispered the voice.
Too near the limb for observation. LAVOISIER. A small bright walled-plain N. of Ulugh Beigh. It has a somewhat dark interior. West of it is Lavoisier A, a ring-plain about 14 miles in diameter. Both are too near the limb for useful observation. GERARD. A large enclosure close to the limb, still farther N., containing a long ridge and a crater.
Nevertheless, they crowded to Guzzy's store, to look at him, until shrewd people began to wonder whether Guzzy hadn't really taken Beigh as a sort of advertisement to draw trade.
The latter seemed unusually happy for the wife of a convict, while the former went straight to Squire Jones and the constable's. Half an hour later all Bowerton knew that William Beigh, alias Bay Billy, alias Handsome, had received a full and free pardon from the Governor.
The Bowertonians were law-abiding people; but, somehow, Guzzy's customers increased from that very day, and his prosperity did not decline even after "Guzzy & Beigh" was the sign over the door of the store which had been built and stocked with Mrs. Wyett's money. Happy Rest is a village whose name has never appeared in gazetteer or census report.
But, if ever you want a friend, tell Helen, she will know where I am, and I will serve you, no matter what the risk and pain." "Thank you," said Guzzy; "but the only favor I'll ever ask of you might as well be named now, and you ought to be able to do it without risk or pain either. It's only this; be an honest man, for Helen's sake." Beigh dropped his head.
But Beigh, alias Bay Billy, alias Handsome, was no ordinary and vulgar jail-bird, the officers told him, and, that he and they might sleep securely, they considered it advisable to carefully iron his hands. A couple of hours rolled away, and left Beigh still sitting moody and silent on the single bedstead in the Bowerton jail.
The next day Bowerton saw a tall, handsome stranger, with downcast eyes, walk rapidly through the principal street and disappear behind Mrs. Wyett's gate. A day later, and Bowerton was electrified by the intelligence that the ex-burglar had been installed as a clerk in Guzzy's store. People said that it was a shame that nobody knew how soon Beigh might take to his old tricks again.
