"Nominations with speeches?" asked the chairman. "Yes, Mr. Chairman." "I second the motion, as amended," declared Cadet Thompson. The motion was put and carried. Cadets Hopper and Lawrence were both nominated, and the nominations seconded. "Mr. Chairman!" "Mr. Delavan." Cadet Delavan was upon his feet, the recognized and avowed arch-supporter of Mr. Dodge.
"If you please, you will not engage a very expensive room for me. I can't afford it," Adah said, timidly, as she followed her conductor into the parlor of the Delavan. She was poor, then.
The Speaker of the Assembly, and Citizens, on Foot, eight a-breast. Their Excellencies the Governor and Commander in Chief were escorted by a Body of West-Chester Light Horse, under the command of Captain Delavan. The Governor gave a public Dinner at Fraunces's Tavern; at which the Commander in Chief and other General Officers were present.
You see I came out wearing the uniform of a British Dragoon Lieutenant, and had it all planned out to join Delavan, and guide him toward Philadelphia over the Lone Tree road. Just before I left our camp at Valley Forge on this trip I received orders from Washington to keep my eyes open for a courier riding from Philadelphia to New York with Clinton's plans of evacuation.
Not even this kept Susan from her last advertised meeting in Albany where Lucretia Mott, Martha C. Wright, Gerrit Smith, and Frederick Douglass joined her. Here the Democratic mayor, George H. Thatcher, was determined to uphold free speech in spite of almost overwhelming opposition, and calling at the Delavan House for the abolitionists, safely escorted them to their hall.
Mildred uttered a cry; but the two men continued to look each at the other, with impassive countenances. "Your only wife is the woman who has been in the private insane asylum of Doctor Rivers at Pueblo, Colorado, for the past eleven years. For about twenty years before that she was in the Delavan private asylum near Denver. You could not divorce her under the laws of Colorado.
The part of the line spoken of by Generals Delavan Bates and Turner and others as the Confederate line were mere rifle pits which the Confederates held until they had perfected the main line, and then gave up the pits. They were in the hollow, where the branch passes through to the breastworks.
I was in the fight over yonder near Mount Laurel night before last when we captured Delavan's forage train " "What!" burst in the dragoon officer. "Was Delavan defeated, then? Hadn't Grant joined him?" "Yes to both questions, sir. Delavan was killed, and Grant surrendered. He and his men were paroled, and started for Philadelphia last evening from here." "From here!" incredulously.
The gist of it is that the Delavan Eyres have separated and a divorce is impending. You know, of course, who the Eyres are." "I've met Eyre." "That so? Ever met his wife?" "No," replied Banneker, in good faith. "No; you wouldn't have, probably. They travel different paths. Besides, she's been practically living abroad. She's a stunner. It's big society stuff, of course.
We were favorably impressed with Racine, and especially with the evidences of civilization it afforded, in the fact of a school house and the establishment of religious services. At Racine we engaged a man to take us, six in all, with our trunks to Delavan. The roads were almost impassable.
