"Because," Drew offered the first argument he could think of which might be acceptable to the other, "I'm on scout in enemy-held territory. If I'm taken, it's not good.

So I can't afford to be hampered by a green kid " "I can ride just as fast and hard as you can, Drew Rennie, and I have Whirlaway for my own now.
The sun was far down the western horizon of the Confederacy, but to the men who rode with Forrest it had not yet set. "Th' kid wants to go...." That was the worst of it. When they listened to Boyd's eager talk, saw him make the effort to get on his feet again, they were almost convinced that the youngster could make the trip back through enemy-held territory to Oak Hill.
