My poor fellow!" he cried, throwing his arm about the wounded man's shoulder. "What is it?" "My arm, sir," said the boy, adding some words in a low tone. "But I'm all right," he said brightly.

Then her own voice began to shake. She came and laid her hand on her uncle's shoulder. "Dear Uncle Ewen you know, I had that extra money! What did I want with it? Just think if it had been mamma! Wouldn't you have let her help? You know you would! You couldn't have been so unkind. Well then, I knew it would be no good, if I came and asked you you wouldn't have let me.

When the three boys sought their bunks, Ewen and Miller still lingered in the big room, and Colonel Howell was asleep. "Time enough in the morning," suggested Norman.
