There are a thousand and one things to do. There is dinner to be served to the children at two o'clock there is Mrs. Keeley to call upon there are the school accounts to be looked into, " here he glanced at his watch " Good Heavens! how time flies! It is half-past eleven! I shall have to see Bainton later on."
Arrests were made in this matter also, but the sham trials resulted much as had that of Brennan. The records of these trials may be seen in Seward county. It was murder for murder, anarchy for anarchy, evasion for evasion, in this portion of the frontier. Judge Botkin soon after this resigned his seat upon the bench and went to lecturing upon the virtues of the Keeley cure.
I was very anxious to do so in view of the trouble the officer had taken to come away out on the picket line, in the middle of the night, to see me, but I just couldn't, and began to stammer a sort of apology about the darkness of the night hindering a prompt recognition, when the "unknown" gave his head a slant to one side, and, in his never forgettable voice, spoke thus to Keeley: "I told you he wouldn't know me."
Miss Keeley, dressed as a youth, had a song in which she brought forward by the hand some well-known characters in fairy tales and nursery rhymes Cinderella, Little Boy Blue, Jack and Jill, and so on, and introduced them to the audience in a topical verse.
Keeley, told him that the Confederate skirmishers were just across the creek, in plain sight, and asked him if I couldn't slip down the brow of the ridge and take a few shots at them. He looked at me kind of queerly, and said: "You stay right where you are, and tend to your own business. You'll have plenty of shooting before long."
So, on the morning before the regiment moved, an ambulance drove up to my tent, and some of the boys carried me out and put me in the vehicle. Capt. Keeley was standing by; he pressed my hand and said, "Good-by, Stillwell; brace up! You'll be all right soon." I was feeling too wretched to talk much; I only said, "Good-by, Captain," and let it go at that.
"Come along, come along! Don't stand there, Bob Keeley!" And Walden rose, placing Epictetus on the seat he vacated "What is it?" Bob Keeley set his hob-nailed feet on the velvety lawn with gingerly precaution, and advancing cap in hand, produced a letter, slightly grimed by his thumb and finger. "From Sir Morton, please sir! Hurgent, 'e sez."
"Principal Balling of the Keeley Heights High School might be able to work you in. He is a brother Mason of mine." "I know some Latin and Greek and Ancient History already. I have been teaching myself." "Well, you are a queer fish ... there never was anyone like you in the family, except your mother. She used to read and read, and read.
I had only sneaked. I wondered how Jack Shepherd felt on such occasions. I had seen him at the Adelphi in the person of Mrs Keeley, and a daring little dog he was. He would make nothing of getting down into the street from the window, spoons and all. I tried this: the shutters were not even closed, and the sash moving noiselessly, I had no difficulty in raising it.
He informed my father that he had been mistaken in me, before ... that he had given me a too cursory look-over, judging me after the usual run ... he announced that he would admit me as special student at the Keeley Heights High School. The one thing High School gave me my Winter there was Shelley. In English we touched on him briefly, mainly emphasising his Skylark.
