Owen was at the appointed place first and after waiting some time and seeing no sign of the boy he decided to go towards the butcher's to meet him.

One afternoon, a jolly-looking little chap, one of the Wisconsin boys, and one after my own heart and he proved it, too, by trating me to several drinks came along with a Rebel Artillery officer's coat under his arm.

We surmised that this might be the sexton's dwelling, but it proved not to be so; and a woman, answering our knock, directed us to the place where he might be found. So Mr. Bradford and I went in search of him, leaving S seated on a tombstone. The sexton was a jolly-looking, ruddy-faced man, a mechanic of some sort, apparently, and he followed us to the churchyard with much alacrity.
