He, too, had declared, as I did, that he had seen the money-packages in Hayne's hands; and he said the real reason he was kicked out of the th was because the officers and men took sides with Hayne and thought he had sworn his reputation away. He begged me not to 'go back on him' as his own regiment had, and I thought he was being persecuted because he told the truth.
"I hardly know the doctor at all, Kate, and cannot imagine what affairs of your husband's he can interfere with." "It was he that put up Clancy to making the disturbance at Mr. Hayne's last night and getting into the guard-house, and tried to prove that he had a right to go there and that the captain had no right to arrest him." "Was Clancy trying to see Mr. Hayne?" asked Miss Travers, quickly.
He would first satisfy himself she was there, then surround the house with sentries so that she could not escape, while he, with the officer of the day and the corporal of the guard, entered the house and confronted him and her. That would wind up Mr. Hayne's career beyond question: nothing short of dismissal could result.
Hayne's: Captain Rayner would have wife, wealth, and friends to help him bear the cross; Mr. Hayne has borne it five long years unaided. I pray God the truth has been brought to light." What fierce reply Mrs. Rayner might have given, who knows? but at that instant a quick step was heard on the piazza, the door opened suddenly, and Captain Rayner entered with a rush.
Waldron re-entered the room. Drawing the child to her side and folding her motherly arms about her, she looked up in Hayne's pale face: "They are going in five minutes. Don't you mean to see her?" "Not there, not under his roof or in that crowd. I will go to the station." "I must run over and say good-by in a moment, when the carriage goes around. Shall shall I say you will come?"
Grimes and one or two young officers who helped Rayner home that the fracas had occurred at Mr. Hayne's, that there had been a mistake for which her husband was not responsible, but that Captain Buxton was entirely to blame.
Still, it isn't a proved fact that a woman spent the night at Hayne's, even if a carriage was seen coming out. You've got hold of some Sudsville gossip, probably," replied Ross. "I have, have I? By God, sir, I'll teach you better manners before we get through with this question. Do you know who saw the carriage, and who saw the woman, both at Hayne's quarters?" "Certainly I don't!
The weapon resembled more the sword of Richard than the scimetar of Saladin, but it was none the less a keen and trenchant blade. There is probably no better instance of Mr. Webster's power of sarcasm than the famous passage in which he replied to Hayne's taunt about the "murdered coalition," which was said to have existed between Adams and Calhoun.
"No, sir; it was 'way off my post. It drove up to Lieutenant Hayne's about half an hour ago." "Where'd it come from?" asked the captain, eagerly. "From town, sir, I suppose." And, leaving the sentry to his own reflections, which, on the whole, were not complimentary to his superior officer, Captain Buxton strode rapidly through the darkness to Lieutenant Hayne's quarters.
"Hayne's position," said Major Waldron, "is practically this: he holds that no man who has borne himself as he has during these five years denied himself everything that he might make up every cent that was lost, though he was in no wise responsible for the loss could by any possibility have been guilty of the charges on which he was tried.
