"I can think of no explanation to offer, sir." "Nor can I imagine any excuse," replied Lieutenant Hall courteously, yet skeptically. Lieutenant Hall made a further inspection of the room, then turned to Dave. "Mr. Darrin, you will put yourself on the report for these two examples of carelessness of your uniform equipment." "Very good, sir."

Leaning over the parapet, he could see one of his fantastically uniformed soldiery pacing back and forth before a sentry-box, his musket jauntily shouldered, and a bayonet glinting at his belt. Karyl stood looking, and his lips curled skeptically as he wondered whether the man would repel or admit assassins. Somewhat wearily the King turned and leaned on the stone coping of the outer wall.

But one fellow standing on the rick says: "Napoleon dead! psha! it's plain those people don't know him!" The journalist added that he heard a speech of the same kind in the bush-region of Aveyron.
