Doubleday asked a few questions of Belle everybody seemed to know everybody else and learning she was headed for the Reservation, possibly to teach school, hired her on the spot away from the job, to go back to his eating-house at Sleepy Cat Junction. No sooner was this arranged, and Bradley told to take her luggage off the stage, than a diversion occurred.
"Be patient a minute; be ca'm, Barb; I'll tell you what I'm talking about. I don't know who cut his wire. I don't know who done it and I won't undertake to say, but what I do say to you, Barb, and I say it hard, you're making a big mistake on this man, and if you don't slow up it'll cost you your life yet." Doubleday was grimly silent. "I've known Jim Laramie," Carpy went on, "since he was a boy.
We need only mention the folio volume of Madam Merian of the last century, Harris's Aurelian, the works of Cramer, Stoll, Drury, Hübner, Horsfield, Doubleday and Westwood, and Hewitson, as comprising the most luxurious and costly entomological works.
"What have you got?" Laramie paused. After a moment he turned his eyes on his questioner: "No hand. This is not my game." "Make it your game and your game in this country is made. Doubleday and Dan Pettigrew want you. They're the men that run this country what do you say?" "The men that run this country can't run me." Van Horn, in spite of his assurance, felt the blow. But he put on a front.
Once more, after a vivid description of the first day's battle, in which Buford with his cavalry division, Doubleday with the First Corps, and Howard with the Eleventh, checked the rebel advance, but at last, after heroic fighting, were overwhelmed and driven back in a disorder which in some brigades resembled a rout, the Comte de Paris recognizes, in the choice of position on which the Union troops were rallied, something beyond the will and wisdom of man.
It takes everybody to know everything, but Sister Barsett was of an opinion that her information was sufficient for the town. She was tellin' me the day I went there how she disliked to have old Mis' Doubleday come an' visit with her, an' remarked that she called Mis' Doubleday very officious. 'Went right down on her knees an' prayed, says she.
On Van Horn's left stood an older man of massive features, the owner of the largest ranch in the north country, Barb Doubleday. Miners from Thief River, with frank, fearless faces, broad-throated, belted and shifted, and with brawny arms for pick and sledge and doublejack, moved to and from the bar like desert travelers breathing in an oasis.
Right then, Kate Doubleday pulled up close to me on horseback. She was just from the trail, that was sure; her horse showed the pace and the girl was excited I seen that when she spoke to me. 'Doctor' then she hesitated. 'Is that Abe Hawk's funeral? 'It is, I says. She looked at it and kept looking at it. The tail-end of the procession was passing Hill Street.
"I say," I ventured to say, "does he mean " "Hold your tongue, sir," broke out the virtuous Doubleday. "Didn't you hear Mr Barnacle say you were to get no assistance? What do you mean by it? I'm ashamed of you; so's Wallop." "I shall mention the matter to the governor," observed Wallop, with a grin at his ally. "Oh, don't," I said. "I beg your pardon!"
When Mr Merrett arrived he went as usual to say good-morning to his uncle, and as usual followed him into the partners' room, to receive such letters as might require answering. I wished Doubleday had not been called down to the docks this morning of all others. He would have told me in a moment what I ought to do, or, which came to the same thing, what he would have done in my place.
