For a moment they remained in ranks, as though stupefied. It was Cowan who stepped out first, snatched his coonskin hat from his head, and waved it in the air. "Huzzay for Colonel Clark!" he roared.
In a game with Wesleyan, his opponent cried out angrily, "Keep your hands for pounding on your Bible, don't be sticking them in my face."

He complained to the unhearing Spike all the way back to a dressing station, though twice refusing help to carry his load. "Mustard gas," said the surgeon. He was back there when Spike on his stretcher came violently to life. "What a dark night!" said Spike between two of the spasms that wrenched him. "Can't see your hand before your face!" "Say, you're hog fat!" grumbled Private Cowan.
"Well, I guess he was in better trim then," answered Cowan. "Besides, he's built well, you see most of his weight below his waist; when a chap's that way it's hard to pull him over.
