It is doubtful if his widow's petition to Congress ever materialized in a reward for any of his descendants. Kendrick, eclipsed by his brilliant assistant, was accidentally killed in Hawaii by the wad of a gun fired by a British vessel to salute the Lady Washington. From the date 1793 or 1795 the little sloop drops out of sea-faring annals. What is Gray's place among pathfinders and naval heroes?
"Then, if you'll give me particulars ," suggested Podmore, reaching for his memorandum pad. "Be good enough to answer my question, please. When will Mr. Wade be in his office?" "Sorry, but it's impossible to say, Mr." he glanced at the card deliberately "Kendrick. If you are looking for a job " "I want to see Mr.
Well" he paused to chuckle again "he says Carson says that window cost us five hundred dollars; but if it did it's cheap at the price, and I'll make the new firm a present of it. Benson & Company and a grandson of Matthew Kendrick the Company!"
"Thank you, but I've no doubt mother can arrange " Louis Gray began, when old Matthew Kendrick interrupted him: "We can do better than that, Dick," said he. He turned to Louis. "We will wait," said he, "while you present my compliments to your mother and say that it will give me great satisfaction if she will allow me to entertain an overflow party of her guests."
A strike of the whole body of the Brotherhood of Engineers alone would starve out the entire Atlantic seaboard in a week; labor insurrection could make head at a dozen given points, and your government couldn't move a man over the roads without the help of the engineers."

To the average person this would have sounded like the wildest insanity. But not to Captain Obed Bangs of East Wellmouth. The captain sprang from the truck and held out his hand. "Johnnie Kendrick!" he shouted. "It's Johnnie Kendrick, I do believe! Well, I swan to man!"

Smoke was curling up from the kitchen end of the private car and the welcome aroma of coffee announced that Taylor had breakfast ready. They climbed aboard forthwith, but the special remained sidetracked to pass a fast freight. It thundered by before they finished the meal and by the time Kendrick found himself on the observation platform at the rear of the car the special was on its way.

"You mean Kendrick, to be exact... I'm sorry, but I don't see it that way." "Do you mean that you would rather pass up a half-million-dollar line than share the spoils?" "It isn't a question of choice, Hilmer.
It looks a good thing at these prices, Kendrick, doesn't it, and a normal harvest coming along on the other side?" "That's for you to say," was the cautious reply.
