It would be well for him to retain for a time my private secretary and stenographer." "Mr. Mott will succeed you. He will no doubt be glad to have your assistance in helping him fall into the routine of the office, Mr. Hobart." Harley sent for Mott at once and told him of his promotion.
"No more trains to-night," responded the man without looking up from the noisy clicker over which he was bending. "No more trains?" "That's what I said. The last one passed here fifteen minutes ago." "Isn't there any way we can get there?" "I s'pose there is." "What is it?" demanded Mott eagerly. "Walk." "How far is it?" "Seven miles." "And there's no other way?"
"We must make him get out, and his mott also," cried Nicholas. "Why should they trample on poor folks?" "You appear to be drunk, and doubtless have a desire to drink more," said Rudolph, taking a purse from his pocket. "Here, this is for you; do not detain my carriage any longer." And he threw out his purse. Tortillard caught it.
Peter John had fallen heavily against Will's shoulder and was instantly asleep, but Mott was not to be so easily disposed of.
The suffrage anniversary was held in Apollo Hall, New York, May 11 and 12, 1871. Mrs. Griffing read an able report on the work at Washington the previous winter. There were strong objections by a number of ladies to sitting on the platform with Mrs. Woodhull, but Mrs. Stanton said she should be sandwiched between Lucretia Mott and herself and that surely would give her sufficient respectability.

Mott had given up a prosperous cotton business, because the cotton was the product of slave labor; but he had been equally successful in the wool trade, so that the days of privation had passed by long ago. Two of their six children, with their families, lived at home, and the harmony was remarked by everybody. Mrs. Mott rose early, and did much housework herself.
Will perceived that he had made a mistake and his better plan would be to say as little as possible, whatever the provocation might be or the opening his adversary might give him. "Did you beat the fast sprinter from the Toad Hollow Institute?" demanded Mott. "Can't say that I did. I never heard of the school till now." "Ever run against anybody from the Honeyville Classical Seminary?" "No."
The minutes seemed inter-minable, but at last he heard the steps of Mr. Mott on the stairs again. "She's coming down to see you herself," said the latter, solemnly. Mr. Hurst nodded, and, turning to the window, tried in vain to take an interest in passing events. A light step sounded on the stairs, the door creaked, and he turned to find himself con-fronted by Miss Garland.
"You might take us there, then," said Will quickly. "I don't know just how the trains run for Winthrop, but it'll be three miles nearer anyway." "Yes, I'll be glad to take you there." "How much are you going to charge us?" demanded Mott who did not plan to be caught again by the "guilelessness" of any of the people of the region. "Oh, I sha'n't charge ye anything.
