And if my job goes, I don't know what I'll do. I've got responsibilities, heavy ones." "Have you a large family, Professor Gillette?" asked the woman.

"Oh, that's terrible! The poor child!"
It was evident that everything was cut and dried before going into court. Judge Gillette had several pages of instructions to the jury, telling them their duty was to convict and that the damages should be a large sum. I had these instructions examined by a good lawyer, Mr. Duminel, of Topeka, and the judge overleaped his perogative.

Today is the grand and glorious event. We will hunt for treasure." "Oh, no, we won't," Enid returned decidedly. "You forget that Professor Gillette and Dad decided that it would be better to do the location work on that claim first." Bet frowned. It was not her way to be patient.

It was a happy summer, but it closed sadly. Clemens was called to Keokuk in August, to his mother's bedside. A few weeks later came the end, and Jane Clemens had closed her long and useful life. She was in her eighty-eighth year. A little later, at Elmira, followed the death of Mrs. Clemens's mother, a sweet and gentle woman. Gillette was originally a Hartford boy.

Ciego was an interesting town.
"And there is just as much chance that no one has passed over this rock since the early days and that we may find a fortune hidden." The professor smiled around at the group with a happy, child-like stare as if he were one of the characters of a fairy story. "Now that's the way to talk, Professor Gillette.
