His father had sent him out with directions to take a couple of men from the quarters of Lieutenant Belthorpe, who was the officer of the day, and find a room where he could in the town. But he knew that Life Knox was in command at the jail, and he preferred to go there. "You are wet to the skin, Leftenant!" exclaimed the sergeant, as he admitted him to the room.
"'Why, sais he, 'look there, Sare. And then they larfed agin, ready to split; and sore enough, no sooner had the Leftenant layed down to drink, than the Prince's hoss kneeled down, and put his head jist over his neck, and began to drink too.
"So I did! if he can't go with you, you'll have to leave him behind and ride double, but it will be rather tough on your horse, leftenant." "Nellie doesn't weigh enough to make any difference, and I expect to walk most of the distance." An unexpected piece of good fortune raised the spirits of the three.
Entering into the spirit of the thing, Robin moved that Samuel Shipton be appointed to command the ship and the party, with the title of captain. "And without pay," suggested Slagg. "And I move," said Stumps, who was just beginning to understand the joke, though a little puzzled by the fact that it was done in earnest, "I move that Robin Wright be first leftenant."
"She's to be at the end o' the pier in five minutes," said the captain, drawing out and consulting a watch that was large enough to have been mistaken for a small eight-day clock. "This is my nephy, Ruby. Ruby Brand Leftenant Lindsay. True blues, both of ye 'When shall we three meet again?

He came back and became the General Pike who died at the moment of his glorious victory over the English, in the War of 1812." "Ah, come to think Pike of Pike's Peak.

"They were so, sergeant not defining murder." "The question is, Kelly, whether what has habbened to the leftenant is murder. If it is murder, then Schmidt must go." The two men were sitting on a bowlder side by side, their hands on their knees and their muskets leaning against their shoulders. They did not look at each other at all, but kept their grave eyes on the ground.
Lucky for us that we got the rest o' the cargo run ashore at Auchmithie. This'll lie snugly here, and we'll pull past the leftenant, who thinks we havena seen him, with oor heeds up and oor tongues in oor cheeks."
