He had dwelt behind it, intact and happy, for fifty years. "The post's come, Father," said Evie awkwardly. "Thanks. Put it down." "Has the breakfast been all right?" "Yes, thanks." The girl glanced at him and at it with constraint. She did not know what to do. "Charles says do you want the TIMES?" "No, I'll read it later." "Ring if you want anything, Father, won't you?" "I've all I want."

From this trip, four old members of the post were brought back dead, having met their fate in the bursting of a caisson, while marching along a paved street. The fort is the great pleasure resort of Kansas. The late commanding officer, Colonel Forsyth, now General Forsyth, is much given to hospitality, and the people of the State take great pride in the post's advancement and its victories.
