Others, with no permanent military attachment, were drifting to Middleburg, Upperville, or Rectortown, inquiring where they might find Mosby, and making their way to join him. There was a young Irishman, Dick Moran. There was a Fauquier County blacksmith, Billy Hibbs, who reported armed with a huge broadsword which had been the last product of his forge.
Our regular surgical nurse, Miss Golden, is ill Miss Hibbs, here, is replacing her for the present." She indicated the gaping damsel; then, as Amherst persisted: "Ah," she wondered negligently, "do you mean the young lady you saw here yesterday? Certainly I had forgotten: Miss Brent was merely a er temporary substitute. I believe she was recommended to Dr.
"I know you wouldn't, Pethick," replied Callum; very much interested. "What is it? What's the point?" "Well, I don't like to say anything," replied Pethick, "but that fellow Hibbs is saying things around here about your sister." "What's that?" exclaimed Callum, straightening up in the most dynamic way and bethinking him of the approved social procedure in all such cases. He should be very angry.
Let us look at this matter from the point of view of the children who survive. U.S. Department of Labor: Children's Bureau. Infant Mortality Series, No. 3, pp. 81, 82, 83, 84. Henry H. Hibbs, Jr. Infant Mortality: Its Relation to Social and Industrial Conditions, p. 39. Russell Sage Foundation, New York, 1916. Cf. U. S. Department of Labor.
Pethick, having evoked the storm, was not a little nervous as to its results in his own case. He, too, as well as Callum, himself as the tale-bearer, might now be involved. But Callum by now was not so easily restrained. His face was quite pale, and he was moving toward the old English grill-room, where Hibbs happened to be, consuming a brandy-and-soda with a friend of about his own age.
He should demand and exact proper satisfaction in some form or other by blows very likely if his honor had been in any way impugned. "What is it he says about my sister? What right has he to mention her name here, anyhow? He doesn't know her." Pethick affected to be greatly concerned lest he cause trouble between Callum and Hibbs.
There was a seaman named Hibbs, hanging by his two hands from the main-stay, and as he hung, the sea washed over him every now and then, as much as a yard deep over his head; and when he saw it coming, he roared out: however, he was but a fool for that; for if he had kept himself quiet, he would not have wasted his strength, and he would have been able to take the chance of holding on so much the longer.
The two combatants were quickly separated; sides were taken by the friends of each, excited explanations attempted and defied. Callum was examining the knuckles of his left hand, which were cut from the blow he had delivered. He maintained a gentlemanly calm. Hibbs, very much flustered and excited, insisted that he had been most unreasonably used. The idea of attacking him here.
He looked at Pethick, whom he knew to be the tale-bearer, and the latter exclaimed, excitedly: "Now don't you try to deny it, Hibbs. You know I heard you?" "Well, what did I say?" asked Hibbs, defiantly. "Well, what did you say?" interrupted Callum, grimly, transferring the conversation to himself. "That's just what I want to know."
Callum entered and called him. "Oh, Hibbs!" he said. Hibbs, hearing his voice and seeing him in the door, arose and came over. He was an interesting youth of the collegiate type, educated at Princeton. He had heard the rumor concerning Aileen from various sources other members of the club, for one and had ventured to repeat it in Pethick's presence.
