Smoking hot, it was placed before Ellen, on a little stand by her easy-chair, with some nice bread and butter; and presently Miss Janet poured her out a cup of tea; "for," she said, "Leander never could take his dinner without it."

On a stump, accessible to all who needed it, rested a squat jug containing rum. I turned my horse loose near the fort and sought out Davis. He was inside the fort, superintending the work.
They agreed that they had, tossed good and bad together in a bag, said good-by, and departed as rapidly as artillerymen on foot can.
