It's like running to catch a train, and then finding suddenly that you've got plenty of time. There doesn't seem any point in going on running." "Why not Aldershot, sir? said Mr Bevan. "What!" cried Sheen. The absolute novelty of the idea, and the gorgeous possibilities of it, made him tingle from head to foot. Aldershot! Why hadn't he thought of it before!
But you get a young gentleman of your own class, just about as quick and strong as you are, and then you'll know where the seconding comes in." "Then, for goodness' sake, don't make any mistake about coming down," said Sheen. "I'll be there, sir," said Joe Bevan. The Queen's Avenue Gymnasium at Aldershot is a roomy place, but it is always crowded on the Public Schools' Day.
"No one, I think, can be more fully convinced of the meanness the sin of my conduct than I am now " "Oh! as to that," returned Bevan, with another of his peculiar smiles, "I didn't exactly mean that. You were tempted, you know, pretty bad. Besides, Bully Gashford is a big rascal, an' richly deserves what he got. No, it wasn't that I meant but it's a bad look-out for you, lad, if they nab you.

"Out o' the way, I know how to stir him up," said Tolly, coming forward with a pail of water and sending the contents violently into his friend's face thus drenching him from head to foot. The result was that Paul Bevan sneezed, and, sitting up, looked astonished. "Ha!
Bevan, on Vernon Street, and is under the escort of Private William Bevan of the general headquarters." That modest paragraph in the morning paper wrought amazing results in the fortunes of many of the people we are interested in. A regiment of cavalry encamped near the outskirts of the city on the line of the Virginia Central had broken camp early in the morning to march northward.
Nobody ever could catch Paul Bevan asleep no, not the sharpest redskin in the land. That's quite out o' the question." Though out of the question, however, the bare thought of such a catastrophe caused little Trevor's under lip to tremble, a mist to obscure his vision, and a something-or-other to fill his throat, which he had to swallow with a gulp.
The hole having presently been made sufficiently deep, they returned to the palm-grove, and laying a blanket on the floor, placed the inanimate body thereon.
