"Now, you remain outside," said Ritter. "If you see anybody coming begin to whistle 'Yankee Doodle, as loud as you can. Don't wait for me, for I'll go out the back way." "All right. But let me know when you are through," answered Coulter, somewhat nervously. "Sure." Coulter took his stand outside of the building and peered forth eagerly in the darkness.
Captain Putnam was very stern, and soon had the cadet badly twisted in his statements. Then Paxton was told to come in, and on being questioned he became more confused even than Coulter. Then both were confronted by George Strong, and at last they virtually admitted that Ritter had struck the first blow, and that they knew nothing of the quarrel previous to that time.
"You are quite sure Ruddy started the quarrel?" questioned Captain Putnam, gravely. "Yes, sir." "And he told the other cadets that your father was dishonest?" "Yes, sir. That is what made me so mad. But I didn't hit him until he attacked me," added Ritter, hastily. "Who was present at the time?" "Pepper Ditmore and Fred Century were with Ruddy, and Gus Coulter and Nick Paxton were With me."
Please!" And then of a sudden his head went under out of sight! Jack was for the moment struck dumb with horror. He felt that Coulter was drowning before his very eyes. Then a sudden noble determination came to him, and measuring his distance carefully he leaped for the iceboat and managed to catch the swaying mast.
Then there was more Yale enthusiasm, and Coulter was so broken up that he gave little Danny Griswold a shoulder ball right over the heart of the plate. Griswold "ate" high balls, as the Harvard pitcher very well knew. He did not fail to make connection with this one, and drove it to deep left for two bags, bringing in two runs. Now the New Haven crowd took their turn, and took it in earnest.
A bully named Dan Baxter had wanted to be major, and he bribed Gus Coulter and some others to vote for him, but without avail. It may be added here that Baxter was now away on a vacation, but had written that he was going to return to the school before long.
Coulter from his place below sent two more bullets into the great hulk of flesh that hung tenaciously and menacingly above him, but, as the second spat out, the rope, none too good at best, parted and the boat, held only by its bow line, swung down with a mighty snap, spilling its occupants into the sea like apples tossed from an overturned plate.
Then I slackened up a little, and when he came close up to me, so as nearly to lay his hand upon me, I squatted right whap down, all short, and he pitched over me near about a rod or so, I guess, on his head, and ploughed up the ground with his nose, the matter of a foot or two. If he didn't polish up the coulter, and both mould boards of his face, it's a pity.
Matheson had found that his Paris office needed only a manager, Coulter, and a couple of clerks, one English and one French. Coulter was a steady-going, reliable man of forty odd, extremely trustworthy and not too imaginative. He knew Lars Larssen, of course, and received him deferentially. "What can I have the pleasure of doing for you, sir?" "I want the address of Mr John Rivière.
Coulter with questions, and I want you two little girls to keep away from the building while the work is going on." "Yes, uncle." Florence gave her promise promptly. "Yes papa but " Dimple was disappointed. She dearly liked to watch the workmen when they came on the place, and she felt this was a deprivation which seemed unnecessary. "Why, papa, can't we look at the workmen?
