Warden watched until he saw the two men enter the building until he saw Moreton come out alone and enter his office.

The last night came. It was not a night like the last one of Frank's former visit; but Frank was reminded of that night all the same.
"Why, Captain, there are some of our men with them," exclaimed Tom Singleton, as he looked through his pocket-glass at them.
