The first hard game was against Columbia, coached by Foster Sanford, who had a wealth of material drawn from the four corners of the earth.
You might almost call it suspicious alacrity. Evidently the gentleman has no fear of meeting us!" "You may be quite certain, Carless, if my theory about the whole thing is a sound theory, that the gentleman will have no fear of meeting anybody, not even a judge and jury!" answered Mr. Pawle sardonically. "If I apprehend things rightly, he'll have been very carefully coached and prepared."
Dear father, you will let me come home, won't you; because I do assure you I shall get in with the greatest ease, even if I'm not coached for a day more. A great many fellows here haven't a tutor at all. I remain, your affectionate son, "A.J. Mortimer.
A young man named Gillespie, clerk of the House, coached him, and in return was christened "Young Jefferson's Manual," a title which he bore for many years.

He held them together and worked them and wheeled them and coached and cheered and compelled them through the hell-tumult of the ghastliest thing there is beneath the dome of heaven house-to-house fighting in an Eastern city.
And he's told me of another actor, a man named George Bellingham, who's now somewhere in London, who can positively identify him as Starr.
