Mason was not alone. Neither he nor Judge Smith nor Mr. Webster nor the court nor the counsel on the other side, attached much importance to this point. Curiously enough, the theory had been originated many years before, by Wheelock himself, at a time when he expected that the minority of the trustees would invoke the aid of the Legislature against him, and his idea had been remembered.
"'Well, said he, slowly, 'if we like each other's beasts, friend, and can agree as to the boot, I don't know as I wouldn't trade; for I don't care to raise colts, havin' plenty of hoss stock on hand, and perhaps you do. "'How old is your hoss? said the Frenchman. "'I didn't raise it, sais Steve, 'Ned Wheelock, I believe, brought her to our parts. "'How old do you take her to be?
I'm just as ready to help you. By the way, have you dined?" "No." "No more have I. Come in and dine with me." "What'll you take?" asked Jasper Wheelock, passing the bill of fare to Frank. "I think I should like to have some roast beef," said Frank. "That will suit me. Here, waiter, two plates of roast beef, and two cups of coffee." "How are they all at home?" asked Jasper.
"'D you see Heth, Cynthy?" he asked. "Yes," replied the girl, disgustedly, "I should say I did, but not to speak to him. He was sitting on Mr. Worthington's porch, and I heard him tell Mr. Worthington he would give the Brampton post-office to Dave Wheelock. I don't want you to think that I was eavesdropping," she added quickly; "I couldn't help hearing it." Jethro did not answer.
He had all the promise of a great man, but he was not a fine scholar. He was studious, punctual, and regular in all his habits. He was so dignified that his friends would as soon have thought of seeing President Wheelock indulge in boyish disorders as of seeing him.
It is, in the strictest legal sense, a private charity. In King v. St. Catherine's Hall, that college is called a private eleemosynary lay corporation. It was endowed by a private founder, and incorporated by letters patent. And in the same manner was Dartmouth College founded and incorporated. Dr. Wheelock is declared by the charter to be its founder.
Twenty salesmen stood behind the counter, and boys were running this way and that with small books in their hands. "How are you, Duncan?" said Jasper. The person addressed was about Jasper Wheelock's age. He had a keen, energetic look and manner, and would be readily singled out as one of the leading clerks. "All right, Wheelock. How are you?" he responded. "Do you want anything in our line?"
Webster, reminding him of their consultation, inclosing a fee of twenty dollars, and asking him to appear before the committee. Mr. Webster did not come, and Wheelock had to go on as best he could without him. One of Wheelock's friends, Mr. Dunham, wrote a very indignant letter to Mr. Webster on his failure to appear; to which Mr.
"As I understand, Worthington," they heard him say, "you want me to appoint young Wheelock for the Brampton post-office." He stuck his thumb into his vest pocket and recrossed his legs "I guess it can be arranged." When the painter at last overtook Cynthia the jewel paints he had so often longed to catch upon a canvas were in her eyes.
Coleman, who had been sent out in company with Mr. Wheelock a short time previous, determined to visit Ava and see the king. They did so, and with some difficulty obtained a hearing. They took with them the Bible, which was in six large volumes, decorated with gold, and well calculated to attract the attention of a heathen monarch. They were introduced into the palace and seated among the nobles.
