Come along." They went down to the boat house, and soon were out on the lake in the Kilo. "She runs better since you had her fixed," remarked Ned. "Yes, they did a good job." "Did you sue Peters?" "Didn't have to. He sent the money," and Tom told of his interview with Mr. Boylan. This was news to Ned, as was also the financial trouble of Mr. Damon.
The familiar voice was near, the German ahead. Sentry after sentry was passed, and each time deadly waiting.... In snatches he understood that the voice always near was Boylan's, but as often forgot it again. Once he realized that Boylan was carrying him, but he could not hold it in mind.... Now he was sure that it was Boylan. He wished he could die from the cold.
These are times for men to live. I wanted to kill myself this morning. You know I was behind you on the hill, too. That, and the tragedy all about, and then they were murdering spies and martyring real Fatherland men out in the court as if there wasn't enough death afield. It was too much for me. Old Boylan helped me, but if I hadn't come in to work, I'd have shot my head off.
I am sure the men will answer with zeal." Poltneck seemed to wilt. Boylan was caught with the others thinking it was the mention of the trenches that frightened this hospital soldier. Yet the smile had not changed when Boylan's eye roved to that. It was not more contemptuous, nor less; but something about it was unsteadying.

I was just thinking I'd like to have one friend like young what's-his-name of The States has " "Mowbray Mowbray don't forget the name, General " "Good-night."
A string of soldiers crawled along, toward the center of the current. There was a place in which they disappeared.... He took his position in the waiting line and heard the cries wrung from the throats of those in the crossing from the paralyzing cold. Only a few succeeded. Boylan saw this, as he awaited his turn.
"I was so hungry once," Boylan said, "that I've been a slave to the fear of it ever since." He referred to the Polar Failure. "Once in Farrel's Island we were four," he added. "We drew lots to find out which one of us we must eat. That was a winter.... All you fellows may begin famine as soon as you like.
He dispatched a sentry to the barracks for a platoon, and stood waiting impatiently for its coming. Big Belt, in the door of his quarters a few paces distant, swallowed again.... It might delay matters.... The black fact was that it would not do more.... "Oh, I say, Lieutenant, come here a moment, please. I want to show you something " Boylan led the Russian in, and turned. The place was empty.
"These seem to be very complete and satisfactory," the young officer reported presently. "I shall furnish an escort to accompany you and Mr. "Boylan," said the voice of the Rhodes' Agency. " to our Colonel Ulrich in charge of the garrison. These papers will go with you of course." Peter cleared his voice and said steadily: "We have long given up any hope of getting anything out as newspaper men.
By the provost's wall came jauntily Blazes Boylan, stepping in tan shoes and socks with skyblue clocks to the refrain of My girl's a Yorkshire girl. Blazes Boylan presented to the leaders' skyblue frontlets and high action a skyblue tie, a widebrimmed straw hat at a rakish angle and a suit of indigo serge.
