Susan sat at the table, took one of the fresh rolls, spread butter upon it.
Lieutenant-colonel Dummer was killed; Colonel Burr's horse was shot under him; and those who had crossed the bridge were compelled to retreat. The movements and the firing of the armies continued until dark. The Americans remained on the battle-ground, with an intention of renewing the attack in the morning.
Justice William Dummer Powell, later Chief Justice of Upper Canada, and former Speaker of the House. At the judge's house and at Tordarroch, the log mansion of General Æneas Shaw another intimate, and Adjutant-General of Militia Brock was wont to repair for a few hours' rest from official cares. When at Fort George our hero usually lived with Colonel Murray, of the 100th, and "charming Mrs.
Henrik cast a glance at me like some wild beast which has an aversion to petting, then flung the bun under the table with such violence that it broke into pieces. "Dummer kerl!"

Judge Gallagher and Blunkers were in evidence. In plain clothes were two policemen, and three of the "fire-laddies," who formed part of the "crew" of the nearest engine, with all of whom he had often chatted.

"Why not now?" "Because we hope to make Coldman speak the truth in the trial, and thus be able to reach Bohlmann." "You're wasting your time." "Not if there's the smallest chance of sending the brewer to prison." "There isn't. Coldman will stick to what he said if the thing is ever tried, which it won't be."
