There was a long silence. "De jedge am bin a class-leader fohty year," said at last old Primus the barber in the background, shaking his woolly poll. Nobody answered. The squire noiselessly laid down the dice and shut the backgammon-board. Major Fetridge rose with a groan: "I'll go over and get a glass of somethin'. Won't some gentleman join me?" Nobody joined him.
Something in the voice, the words, came from a strong soul in desperate strait belonged to a man with intellect and energy, for whom she could have near sympathy, a sense of alliance; but before her eyes was only ridiculous Sam Fetridge, the butt of the village, vaporing up and down. "It is true," she said frankly, "that your life in Sevier has been wretched enough.
For you did recognize me, you know." He turned without another word, and walked down the hill with slouching step and head bent. Isabel tried to think of him as the tippling major, but it seemed as if she had talked to another man.

You saw the man I might have been, and never was.
Grayson turned to the major: "Do you really know this Boyer, Fetridge? Could you find him if he was wanted?" Sam did not answer immediately. He was looking thoughtfully at the ground, his palms resting on his knees. He too supposed that Boyer was the heir, and the news had driven all the braggadocio and drunken fire out of him. What a weak imitation of a man he was, any how!
