She was equally certain of some defalcation now. She did not doubt that Hester had done as she had said.

With the officers the reputation of Halloway for courage and fidelity stood no less high; but, while they secretly lamented the circumstance of his defalcation, they could not disguise from themselves the almost certainty of his guilt, for each, as he now gazed upon the prisoner, recollected the confusion and hesitation of manner he had evinced when questioned by them preparatory to their ascending to the ramparts.

The defalcation which creates angry feeling is that which has to be endured without previous warning, when a man votes against his party, or a set of men, from private pique or from some cause which is never clear."

Fortunately about this time the famous defalcation in the Indian Department, in which he was guiltily involved, destroyed his credit with the President, and at the same time he quarreled with his associates concerning Anderson's removal to Fort Sumter.
