The germ of it must have been in him from the first; his burning necessity for Susan, he told himself, had been born in him, laid dormant until, yes it had been stirred into activity by Essie Scofield, by the revulsion which had followed that natural development. He was suddenly conscious that Al Schimpf had ceased domineering Essie.
Scofield had the forethought and energy to take advantage of those opportunities. From first to last he had to depend on his own energies, having been left an orphan at sixteen years of age, and from the time of his reaching his majority, being compelled to push his way unaided, a stranger in a strange land. The efforts of just such men have made Cleveland what it is to-day. Levi Haldeman.
Scofield looked at him, bewildered. "Thar's no danger," he said, calmly. "Yer nerves are weak. But yer love for me's true, David. That's sure," with a smile. "But I've got to warn the boys. Good bye," hesitating, his face growing red. Them's good, friendly words. Good bye! God bless you, boy!" Gaunt wrung his hand, and watched him as he turned to the road. He saw Bone meet him, leading a horse.

"I was only seeking to shorten your ordeal, but for obvious reasons must go slowly;" and he began feeling his way. "Mr. Scofield, am I not very heavy?" she asked softly. "Not as heavy as my heart, and you know it." "I'm sure I " "No, you are not to blame.
Harvard professors have been succesively: Francis G. Peabody, Theodore W. Richards, William H. Scofield, William M. Davis, George F. Moore, H. Munsterberg, Theobald Smith, Charles S. Minog; and Roosevelt professors: J.W. Burgess, Arthur T. Hadley, Felix Adler, Benj. Ide Wheeler, C. Alphonso Smith, Paul S. Reinsch, and William H. Sloane.
It is here well enough to state that two or three months later the President relieved Scofield from his Missouri command and sent him to the front in the South, much to the betterment of his military reputation, and doubtless to his own personal gratification. Rosecrans was made his successor.
He thought of the sharper breath of the brandy and oranges compounded by Essie Scofield. A thin odour of foxglove clung to the memory of his wife.
Scofield, you know that you were never more welcome. It's very kind of you." "Any man would be glad to come to your aid. It is merely your misfortune that I happen to be the one."
