Douglas had come into the State from Vermont only the previous year, and having studied law for several months considered himself eminently qualified to be State's attorney for the district in which he lived. General Linder says of the two men at this time: "I here had an opportunity, better than any I had previously possessed, of measuring the intellectual stature of Abraham Lincoln.
"It's just like this, Grant, old boy," said Linder, getting up and putting his hand on his friend's shoulder, "I feel that I still have an interest in the chap who saved all of me except what this empty sleeve stands for, and it's that interest which makes me speak about something which you may say is none of my business. I was out here Monday night to see you, and you were not at home.
I bought the biggest old sparkler in this town and sent it out with Y.D., if he didn't lose it through the lining of his vest he handled it like it might have been a box of pills bad pills, Linder and I've got an architect figuring how much expense he can put on a house he gets a commission on the cost, you see and one of these nights I'm going to buy you a dinner that'll keep you fed till Christmas.
A light wind, laden with snow-smell from the mountains, pressed gently against his features, and presently Linder took deeper breaths than he had ever known before. "By Jove!" he said. "Who'd have thought it possible?"
Linder, or Blake as he was known at Elmvale, had naturally got well away from the neighborhood of the dam after it was blown up. That he was on this island at the present time was not so likely; but that he had been here, and in this cabin, was very possible. Perhaps had the castaways from the wrecked yawl arrived a few hours before at the cabin of Mag they might have seen the German spy.
"I know something of Dad's frank talks... I'm sorry... I would have liked to ask you to come and see me to see us my mother would be glad to see you. I can hardly ask you to come if you are going to be bad friends with Dad." "No, I suppose not," he admitted. "You were very good to me; very decent," she continued. At that moment Transley, Linder, and Y.D. appeared, with two horses.
"Chuck at the Y.D. to-night, and a bed under the shingles," shouted Transley, waving to the procession to be off. Linder, foreman and head teamster, straightened up from the half load of new hay in which he had been awaiting the final word, tightened the lines, made an unique sound in his throat, and the horses pressed their shoulders into the collars.
Zen's cordial handshake did more to reassure Phyllis than any amount of explanations, and Linder's timely observation that he knew Wilson was there and was wondering about him himself had valuable corroborative effect. "But now YOUR explanations?" said Grant. "How comes it, Linder?" "Simple enough, from our side.
Edith Linder agrees with Tory besides Evan Phillips and several other girls. "Strangely the persons most opposed to forgiving the boys and making friends again are Margaret Hale and Joan Peters. "We are to vote on the question to-night. "But here comes Teresa. Perhaps she will tell us how she feels on the subject. I wonder what is the matter? She looks worried, and she has been so happy at camp."
And what he thought was this: He was a long while framing the exact thought; he tried to beat it back in a dozen ways, but it circled around him, gradually closed in upon him and forced its acceptance. "Linder called me a fool, and he was right. He might have called me a coward, and again he would have been right. Linder was right."
