"I'd like to be your partner for good, Carolina!" he cried. They stood there close together, holding each other's hands, looking into each other's eyes, when the door opened and in came Charles Norton. Congressman Norton was startled at the sight of Carolina and Haines apparently so wrapped up in each other. Perhaps she was getting interested in the handsome, interfering secretary.
The congressman, the mayor, the school trustees and various other men of standing came, accompanied by their wives and daughters. Scholars of various grades had parts to perform on the programme, but the eyes of all sought the bottom of the page where were printed the names of the two oratorical gladiators: "BELTON PIEDMONT. BERNARD BELGRAVE."
He frankly owned himself "a Democrat boy," and though the congressman was a Republican his fancy was taken with the honesty of the youth, whom he never saw till one day a young officer "with long yellow hair, hanging like Absalom's," presented himself at his house in Washington as Lieutenant Custer. "Mr.
A scheming blackleg, posing in the guise of a loving father, imposed upon me. I am sorry for the trouble I have caused you. Of you and of the little girl with you I ask pardon I entreat forgiveness." He paused. Captain Cy, the shadow of a smile at the corner of his mouth, nodded, and said briefly: "All right, Heman. I forgive you." Few heard him: the majority were applauding the congressman.
I placed my hand on that verse when I took the oath of office, on behalf of all Americans, for no matter what our differences in our faiths, our backgrounds, our politics, we must all be repairers of the breach. I want to say a word about two other Americans who show us how. Congressman Frank Tejeda was buried yesterday, a proud American whose family came from Mexico. He was only 51 years old.
"When I am ready to give the word," continued Congressman Spokes, "the young men who want to go to West Point will file out of the door at this end of the hall. In the rooms across the corridor they will find the physicians who are making the physical examinations for West Point.
Don't go away until you have a good word from our little passenger." The outstretched hand of the Northern Congressman was not refused by the vagrant, whose eccentric sorrow yet amused the Southern Committeemen. "Ole Beau's jib-boom of a mustache '11 put his eye out," said Pontotoc Bibb, "ef he fetches another groan like that."
They were addressed by a congressman who had just returned from an exhaustive three-months study of the finances, ethnology, political systems, linguistic divisions, mineral resources, and agriculture of Germany, France, Great Britain, Italy, Austria, Czechoslovakia, Jugoslavia, and Bulgaria.
I know their wives, their children, their babies I even made it a point to be on good terms with their lackeys. I know every Congressman well even familiarly." "Very good. Do you know any of their signatures? Do you know their handwriting?" "Why I know their handwriting as well as I know my own have had correspondence enough with them, I should think.
"But, if I find the facts against you, then my hands are tied." "If if it's a question of money " stammered the submarine man. "Money?" demanded the Congressman, crisply. "What for?" "Why er er for expenses." "I can pay my own expenses, Rhinds, in a matter that affects the good name of my district. Now, give me your side of this affair." For an hour the two men remained talking.
