"Well, sir!" he says, "you should know there is a difference between Harvey Trueman's fox terrier, so long as you are general counsel for the Paradise Coal Company, and a man who marches along the highway with a revolver in one hand and a torch in the other, his cowardly heart filled with murder and arson!

There is something very earnest in the expression of Harvey Trueman's face a soberness that is seldom found in men under fifty.

A minute later the blast of the bugle was heard in the distance, followed immediately by the onslaught of Captain Trueman's company. Deck observed the impetuous charge.
