"He says his father is in business again and is doing better," answered Paxton, who was present. "Hello, Reff!" he called out. "Want another passenger?" "I don't want you!" answered the bully, briefly. "All right, you don't have to have me!" growled Paxton. "Say, Century, do you want to race me?" asked Ritter, as he brought the Rosebud alongside the dock. "I don't know," answered Fred, slowly.
His regiment was composed principally of men from Worcester, though there were some from Leicester, Auburn, Paxton and Holden, and a braver band never took the field, or mustered for battle. High character for courage and discipline, early acquired, was maintained unsullied to the close of their service. His troops being drilled, Col.
"Yes, and he even took some of his own things, just for a blind, according to this man Smith. What Coulter has to say, and Paxton, seems to corroborate his story." "What a terrible thing to do!" murmured Jack.

Andy just takes to gymnastic exercises, that's all." "Humph! I don't think such an exhibition much!" "Just the same, Paxton, you'd give a good deal to do as well," retorted the youth who loved to eat, and turned his back on the other cadet. Thanksgiving came and went in another storm.
"Let us get good seats in the carryall." "That's the talk! Let us get in before the others take the seats!" came from Nick Paxton, another crony. He pushed ahead, and his elbow caught Pepper Ditmore directly in the ribs. "Not quite so swift, Paxton!" cried Pepper, and he gave the cadet a quick shove backwards.
The infamous story is familiar in the annals of Pennsylvania as the "Paxton massacre," because the "Paxton boys," the perpetrators, came from the Scotch-Irish settlement bearing that name. Franklin's indignation was great, and he expressed it forcibly in a pamphlet.
