"I cannot let you take it, my son," said Father Beret "You have its mate, that should satisfy you." "No, Colonel Hamilton took it," Farnsworth quickly replied. "If I could I would gladly return it to its owner. I am not a thief, Father, and I am ashamed of of what I did when I was drunk." The priest looked sharply into Farnsworth's eyes and read there something that reassured him.
"Your pardon, Father, but hearing Captain Farnsworth's voice I made bold to knock." "What is it, Bobby?" Farnsworth called out. "Nothing, only the Governor has been having you looked for in every nook and corner of the fort and town. You'd better report at once, or hell be having us drag the river for your body."
It was in Farnsworth's back yard, bouncing a little sluggishly on the grass. The grass would damp it, hold it back, until we could get to it. Unless.... I took off up the basement steps like a streak. Just beyond the back yard, I had caught a glimpse of something that frightened me.
The awful picture which Miss Ware had drawn of Jim's dreadful isolation and misery and her own indignant sympathy rushed upon Farnsworth's mind, and were so comically out of relation with the facts that he sank weakly into the nearest chair and roared. "This is the way you go to jail is it?" he gasped. Mrs.
"And I think a man who owns up fair and square just when it's hardest to has got spine enough to hold him together, anyhow." "Up before ye asked him!" Abijah turned on Farnsworth. "Up for what? Tell me that, will ye?" And Solomon, listening anxiously for Farnsworth's answer, was depressed to hear him give merely a good-humored laugh at Uncle Abijah's thrust. "Mr.
"Afraid you'd say no!" and Farnsworth smiled. "You know, you've not been overly gracious of late about Azalea taking baby out." "I know it, but I had my own reasons." "And quite right you should have. But, don't worry, I'm sure the two wanderers will turn up all right." Farnsworth's hearty assurance went far to relieve Patty's fears and when Elise suggested a bad fall, he only laughed, and said,
"She doesn't look to be a French girl, either decidedly English." He shrugged his shoulders, then laughed dryly. "Farnsworth's as crazy as can be, the beggar; in love with her so deep that he can't see out. By Jove, she IS a beauty! Never saw such eyes. And plucky to beat the devil. I'll bet my head Barlow'll be daft about her next!"
Farnsworth that shed any light on my aunt's history beyond what she had told me herself, which was precious little. Mrs. Farnsworth's talk was that of a cultivated woman. Her voice interested me unaccountably; the tones had all manner of shadings and inflections; it was curiously musical, but in speaking of the great war a passionate note crept into it that stirred me deeply.
"I am not susceptible, my dear." This more for Farnsworth's benefit than to insult her, albeit he was not in a mood to care. "You are a coward and a liar!" she exclaimed, her face flushing with hot shame. "You stand here," she quickly added, turning fiercely upon Farnsworth, "and quietly listen to such words! You, too, are a coward if you do not make him retract! Oh, you English are low brutes!"
"You see, he's fearfully busy today, with a specially important matter, and he probably won't be in his own office, anyway. And I hate to intrude on a directors' meeting, that is, if there's no necessity. And yet, it seems as if I must!" "Oh, do," cried Elise; "you really must, Patty! Why, Bill would reproach you if you didn't." So Patty called Farnsworth's office.
