Traders from Gaul and Italy, Roman artisans and workmen, haughty legionaries with shield and helmet, civil officials, Greek players, artists and decorators, native tribesmen, with the products of their fields or the spoils of the chase, walking with humble mien; and shopkeepers sitting at the open fronts of their houses, while their slaves called the attention of passersby to the merits of the goods.
Men were running in the direction of the fire carrying buckets; women were standing at the doors inquiring of the passersby if they knew what street was on fire, and whether it was likely to spread. The sound of military trumpets calling the soldiers to arms rose in various parts of the city, and mingled with the hoarse sound of the watchmen's horns.
But the rumour of night meetings and oath-bound secrecy persisted, and some of these shreds of gossip came to Dorothy Thornton over the dooryard fence as passersby drew rein in the shadow of the black walnut. Nearer anxieties just now made her mind unreceptive to loose and improbable stories of that nature, and she gave them scant attention.
"Weren't you in the jail guard?" asked Keith. Watkins nodded. "How does it happen you're outside?" "The committee sent notice that the truce was over." Johnny uttered an exultant yell, which he cut short shamefacedly when a dozen passersby looked around.

Recruiting posters were everywhere.
"And we won't go home until morning!" Thus the gay and festive lads chanted, meanwhile circling about Andy and Dunk, who sought in vain to break through. Passersby went on their way, smiling indulgently at the antics of the students. "Fetch 'em along!" commanded the leader of the "sports." "Come on!" came the orders, and Andy and Dunk were dragged off toward a certain resort.
