That'll give her an hour here, and an hour to go home and eat her supper and that'll get us to train-time, and then the circus'll close down. Now you go home and go to bed, Bill. You're all beat out.

"I wish this wedding could last a week," she confided to Lieutenant Logan, when he paused beside her. "Don't you know, they did in the fairy-tales, some of them. There was 'feasting and merrymaking for seventy days and seventy nights. This one is going by so fast that it will soon be train-time.

Hal explained that he had to go back to Western City that night, but that he would never forget his old friend, and would see that he had a good job.
