Sergeant Taft, with a shattered arm, was carried off the field by his lieutenant. Brennan, Gray, Prindle, Lawton, Holden and Carlos Bissell lay dead. Cook lay mortally wounded. Lieutenant Banning was crippled for life. John Thompson of Ellington had a bullet hole through his jaws, incapacitating him for further service.
He watched the stumbling pensioner cropping the bright grass for a few minutes, breathed heavily, turned the cob into the road again, and went on with sharp eyes glancing emotionless. His daughter-in-law died soon after, and he assumed sole charge of the young Ellington whom we have seen making a forlorn pilgrimage under the trees.

A spirt of water had jerked over the boat's side.
He carried out his instruction as well as he knew how. The boat came dashingly in, flinging the spray gallantly aside as she ducked and plunged in the short sea. Casely saw that Ellington was going wrong. For an instant he had an ungenerous thought. "Should I save him?"
