Oh, I figured things out on that ride!" Got the sheriff's address the sheriff that saw her that night they held up the locomotive. Got him to meet me at Edgeford and make a big talk to the superintendent. Made a big talk myself. I said, 'Put that girl in charge of Separ, and the boys'll quit shooting your water-tank. But Tubercle can't influence 'em. 'Tubercle? says the superintendent.
"Kentucky's a right smart way to chase after a girl," said the Virginian. "Sure!" said Mr. McLean. "I quit at Edgeford." He met their few remarks so smoothly that they got no joy from him; and being asked had he seen the new agent, he answered yes, that Tubercle had gone Wednesday, and his successor did not seem to be much of a man.
And I shook his hand again. To tonic her grief Jessamine had longed for some activity, some work, and he had shown her Wyoming might hold this for her as well as Kentucky. "But how in the world," I asked him, "did you persuade her to stop over at Edgeford at all?"
In case the duties were more than she had been accustomed to on the Louisville and Nashville, she could continue east with the loss of only a day. The superintendent believed the salary could be arranged satisfactorily. Enclosed please to find an order for a free ride to Edgeford. Jessamine turned her wondering eyes on Lin.
We had it put on the day she settled to accept the superintendent's proposition." Here Lin fired his small exchanged weapon at a cotton-wood, striking low. "She can beat that with mine!" he exclaimed, proud and tender. "She took four days deciding at Edgeford, and I learned her to hit the ace of clubs."
As the train's pace quickened he did not step off, and Miss Buckner cried "Jump!" "Too late," said he, placidly. Then he called to me, "I'm hard to beat, too!" So the train took them both away, as I might have guessed was his intention all along. "Is that marriage again?" said Billy, anxiously. "He wouldn't tell me nothing." "He's just seeing Miss Buckner as far as Edgeford," said the agent.
"You've done this!" she exclaimed. "Read, read!" So she read, with big eyes. It was an official letter of the railroad, written by the division superintendent at Edgeford. It hoped Miss Buckner might feel like taking the position of agent at Separ. If she was willing to consider this, would she stop over at Edgeford, on her way east, and talk with the superintendent?
Before I'd got far as thinking of Billy at all right after Edgeford, when my head was just a whirl of joy Jessamine says to me one day, 'Read that. It was Governor Barker writin' to her about her brother and her sorrow." Lin paused. "And about me. I can't never tell you but he said a heap I didn't deserve.
