"No trouble at all . Bo's'n," he called, "summon all passengers on deck." Frank and Jack were already there, and approached. The American officer asked them a few questions, and then waved them away. "All right," he said. Mrs. Wheaton and her daughter appeared a few moments later. The former was angry. She approached the lieutenant.
Anabel Colton, Dolly Boutts, and Serena Wheaton, after half a day's telephoning, decided to "wear their necks," and their hostess agreed to keep them in countenance. Every team in Rosewater was bespoken for the distinguished occasion, and the reports of the weather bureau were consulted daily. But the rains held off and the night of the party was brilliant with starlight, and not too cold.
Gear recommended that plan when we first met," said I. "He will approve of it. But how as to Mr. Hardcap?" "Oh! no matter about Hardcap," said Mr. Wheaton, "he's no account." "Excuse me," said I, "he is one of our committee and is of account."

This was on Friday previous to the Sunday on which they were to meet in council.

Certainly, acts had been done by him which, according to Wheaton, constituted a "setting forth as a vessel of war."
It was after the hay had been unloaded and Christopher had been shown the garden full of lusty vegetables, and told of the great crop with no drawback, that he and the minister had a few minutes alone together at the gate. "I want to tell you, Mr. Wheaton, that I am settled in my mind now. I shall never complain again, no matter what happens.
There's no use fighting in this court any longer, for the Judge won't let us work the ground ourselves, even if we give bond, and he won't grant an appeal. He says his orders aren't appealable. We ought to send Wheaton out to 'Frisco and have him take the case to the higher courts. Maybe he can get a writ of supersedeas."
So, in substance, said James Wheaton, Esq., Chairman Board of Trustees, etc., etc.; and so, in substance, said they all. Even Mr. Hardcap acquiesced, though with a mild protest against modern extravagance. "Well, gentlemen," said Mr. Wheaton, "this is just what I expected; yes, let me say, just what I was sure of. In fact, I told Mr.
Wheaton fasted for three days. Mrs. Leslie was a brave woman, but when the judge suggested that it would be better for him to talk the matter over with Gwynne, obtain his explanation, and delicately hint the attitude of the town, she was nothing loath to renounce her mission.
