Most of the soldiers had been awakened by the voices, and were sitting up, rubbing sleepy eyes. Robert saw at once that they were city men, singularly out of place in the vast forest and the darkness. "We welcome you to our camp," said young Captain Colden, with dignity. "If you are hungry we have food, and if you are without blankets we can furnish them to you."
They won't try anything yet a while, but they're madder than hornets, and they're sure to move on us later. You just watch." Yet Colden, Wilton and the others were compelled to argue with the men, especially with the boat builders and wood choppers.
I remembered your objections to Talbot on this score, not only as a husband, but as a friend. I could, therefore, only suppose that Colden had joined dissimulation to his other errors, and had gained and kept your good opinion by avowing sentiments which his heart secretly abhorred. I cannot describe to you, Jane, my alarms upon this discovery.
Colden insisted that this was an attempt of the Executive to interfere with the Judiciary, which ought not to be tolerated. Counsel in criminal cases had always the right to stand face to face with witnesses. It was outrageous that the President should first approve of the conduct of Colonel Smith, then order a prosecution against him and forbid his witnesses to attend the trial.
"If you will look very closely at the thicket about one hundred yards directly in front of us you'll see the leaves shaking." "Yes, I can make out some movement there," said Colden. "They've discovered, of course, that we've left the fire, and they know also where we are." "Do you think they'll try to rush us?" "Not at all.
I will not say what it is, lest the fear of it should keep thee away. And, now that I have finished the history of Mrs. Henning and her boarder, I will bid thee good-night. Good good-night, my love. Letter XXXI To Henry Colden Philadelphia, November 11. How shall I tell you the strange strange incident? Every fibre of my frame still trembles.
Stout arms were throwing the fallen trees into a long line of breastworks, and the place already began to look like a fortified point. Willet's eyes glistened. "Although St. Luc beat us when we were with Rogers," he said, "I think we'll hold him here. We've certain advantages that will help us mightily." "Thanks to you and your comrades for bringing us such timely warning," repeated Colden.
The people whom they had rescued scattered among their relatives and friends, awaiting the time when they could return to the wilderness, and rebuild their homes there, but Colden, Wilton, Carson and their troop were eager for service with Colonel William Johnson.
He listened for a little while to Grosvenor's narrative but his attention wandered back to the seafaring man. Then he decided. "Will you fellows talk on and excuse me for a few minutes?" he said. "What is it, Lennox?" asked Colden. "I see an acquaintance on the other side of the room. I wish to speak to him." "That being the case, we'll let you go, but we'll miss you. Hurry back."
"My head is thumping at a terrible rate, but I feel that it will soon become quieter." "Its ability to thump shows that you're full of life. How about your men, Captain Colden?" "Four of my brave lads are sped. God rest their souls! They died in a good cause. Some of the others are wounded, but we won't count wounds now."
