"That's all right," generously granted the doctor, "if you didn't know no better. But to be sure, I'm some disappointed." "I'm sorry for that!" "Would you of mebbe said yes, if you hadn't of been promised a'ready to one of them tony Millersville Normal professors," the doctor inquired curiously "me bein' a professional gentleman that way?"
Them fellers you brought in here would hang me to the first tree they found if they knowed it." The apartment was not a cell. It contained a bed and some furniture, and the sergeant thought he could be very comfortable in it till morning. "Which way did your troopers come from, Sergeant?" asked the keeper. "From the west. We left Millersville this morning," answered Life.
"But when did all this occur?" inquired Captain Gordon, intensely interested when he heard that the company were coming to Millersville. "I told you that Walcott got home at midnight," answered the colonel. "But midnight divides any two days in the month of January, and in every other month in every year.

Meanwhile the clodhopper had also said good-bye to Amanda. For some reason he did not stop to analyze, the heart of Martin Landis was light as he went home from the Commencement at Millersville.

"You are volunteers; and if you object to obeying my orders, you may march your men back to Millersville," replied Lieutenant Lyon with dignity enough for a major-general. "Do you mean to send us back?" demanded Butters angrily.
"A hundred and twenty-five's plenty enough for a good starter at the Millersville Normal," said the doctor. "But," Tillie hesitated, "this is April, and the spring term closes in three months. What should I do and where could I go after that? If I made such a break with father, he might refuse to take me home even if I had nowhere else to go. Could I risk that?"

Pop says he's goin' to ast your pop and the rest of the Board if they hadn't ought to ast this here Harvard gradyate to take a couple dollars less, seein' he ain't no Millersville Normal." They had by this time reached the farm, and Tillie, not very warmly, asked Absalom whether he would "come in and sit awhile." She almost sighed audibly as he eagerly consented.
