The German Consul was elated at the success which had crowned our efforts, and he no longer entertained a single doubt of the guilt of the miserable man, in whose behalf he had originally interested himself. The information of our success was conveyed to Mr. Olmstead, the State's attorney, who received it with evident surprise and satisfaction.
Now the dogged look she was learning to dread settled over his face, and he squared his shoulders sturdily. "Well, I guess you'll find I can, Sara Olmstead, and it will take somebody older and bigger'n you to stop me, too! So 'forbid' till you're tired, if you like; I've given my word, and I'm going that's settled!"
Olmstead, however, was resolute, and Bucholz returned to the house upon the conclusion of the testimony for that day, in charge of an officer of the law, who was instructed to treat him kindly, but under no circumstances to allow him out of his sight, and the further investigation was deferred until the following week.

Fred Law Olmstead, at Willard's Hotel, the latter offered to go with him to the War Department and introduce him to Secretary Stanton. They found Stanton fully alive to the occasion, and in reply to Mr. Stearns's offer he said: "I have heard of your recruiting bureau, and I think you would be the best man to run the machine you have constructed.

"You, Sara Olmstead, the writer who is already being noticed in the literary world! Why shouldn't you be asked, I'd like to know?" "But, dear Mrs. Macon, what shall I wear? how shall I act?"
