One of the longest clefts on the visible surface runs immediately W. of this formation. It is at least 300 miles in length, and varies much in width and character, consisting in places of distinct crater-rows. CRUGER. A regular ring-plain E. of Fontana, 30 miles in diameter, with a dark floor, without detail, and comparatively low bright walls.
Aleck had gone to Wisconsin and was living in the same town as young Cruger, one of my father's law-students. When my father died, I telegraphed Cruger, inviting him to serve as one of the pall-bearers, and asked him to find Aleck and tell him. I knew he would be hurt if I didn't let him know. "At two o'clock that night my niece, who was with my mother, rapped at my door.
"Where were you?" asked his mother as he returned to his seat beside her in the stall. "In box 39," he replied. "Mr. Stanton's box?" she asked. "Yes," said Beverly. "I wanted to see Charlotte and Octavie." "And Miss Stanton?" added his mother. Beverly made no reply. "You were at her house yesterday," said Mrs. Cruger. "Yes." "Beverly, you must be careful! Your father objects to Miss Stanton."
He therefore fell back to Orangeburg on the Edisto and though he attempted at first to maintain Cruger with a strong body at Ninety-Six was soon induced to recall him.
Stanton told his daughter, the day after his arrival, that he approved of her engagement to Beverly Cruger and that it gave him great happiness, the utter absence of genuine fatherly tenderness in his manner showed the girl plainly that his happiness was brought about mainly by the fact that it advanced him several rungs in the social ladder, and not because she was going to marry a man who would make her happy.
Cruger, the spoiling of his relatives, and his easy conquest or equally flattering antagonism of the youth of the Island, had fostered his self-confidence without persuading him that he was necessarily a genius.
"You want to look out for these distingué foreigners, Hélène! You're an heiress, you know," said Octavie, who was an omnivorous newspaper reader. "Yes," said Hélène, and then she was silent. Beverly Cruger looked at her. Her face, usually happy and smiling, was sad and thoughtful. "This stranger has made quite an impression on her," he thought.
"When I go abroad as hostess in the Embassy that Mr. Cruger represents," Mrs. Cruger said, taking up the thread of the conversation, "I want my son's wife to share my honours. A sweet young woman, far younger than I, is almost a a " "A charming necessity," added Mr. Cruger, who made it a habit to finish his wife's sentences.
Upon the side of the swamp there was not much fear of attack, but three redoubts were erected to prevent a surprise from this direction. The defense on the right face of the town was conducted by Colonel Maitland. The defense on the left, consisting of two strong redoubts and several batteries, was commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Cruger.
Her distress was so acute and real that Alexander, who loved her, forgot his exultation and would have renounced the trip, had he not given his word to Mr. Cruger. "I'll be careful, and I'll ride out the day after I return," he said, arranging his aunt on the sofa with her smelling-bottle, an office he had performed many times.
