"Don't try to tell me your grandfather did all that," protested Wyckoff, "because I know better. There were a lot of others helped. I read about it in a book." "I am not grudging glory to others," returned David; "I am only saying I am proud that I am a descendant of a revolutionist." Wyckoff dived into his inner pocket and produced a leather photograph frame that folded like a concertina.
"In speaking of great individual plays that have won close games, his name should go down with Charlie Daly, Clint Wyckoff, Arthur Poe, Snake Ames and Dudley Dean, for with Reiter's splendid interference in putting out the Harvard left end, Billy Bannard's touchdown gave Princeton the confidence to carry her to victory that day and to the ultimate championship two weeks later."

"Yaas, sir, Boss," grinned the darky. "Ah sure will shoot." "Now, boys, get going," commanded their captor. "Walk right up, too, for we're a long ways from home and I'm tired." "How did you happen back so soon?" queried Harry. "I thought you had gone to town to talk with Wyckoff about hanging us." "I done change my mind," answered Lopez. "I forgot something at the cabin and now hit's done burned.

In spite of their sympathy the boys could not restrain a laugh. "I guess that if your front teeth come together your back ones meet," Jack assured the injured boy. "Let's look for Wyckoff." "You mean let's look for Wyckoff's remains!" Harry tried to put in, but he was stopped by a gesture from Frank. "Let's not make it any more horrible than it is.
They were by some invidious turn of fate all to help to constitute the heritage of our young kinsman, the orphaned and administered fils de famille, whose father, Alexander Wyckoff, son of our great-aunt and one of the two brothers of cousin Helen, just discernibly flushes for me through the ominous haze that preceded the worst visitation of cholera New York was to know.
