That accounts for the blood stains upon Cassidy's coat, but, of course, nobody credited his story. "The tramp's confession, however, was wired to the general manager of the Wabash by the conductor of the out-going train, together with a description of the tramp's clothes, which description tallies with that given of those garments worn by Cassidy.
This requirement covers the practice of effective leadership. Our concern, at this point, lies primarily with the first eight of these requirements for survival and success in building up empires and civilizations. Empires and civilizations are established during periods of social expansion when the up-building and out-going urges are widely felt.
Even though they had seen him, they would not have cared; they would have done nothing to delay him. They were past all caring. Like tired ships, having weathered many storms, they had furled their sails in the harbor of desire. He had slipped by them like a demon vessel, all canvas spread, out-going on his endless voyage. From the door, before he left, he had looked back.
A'm lodgin' at Peggy Dawson's, t' lath and plaster cottage at t' right hand o' t' bridge, a' among t' new houses, as they're thinkin' o' buildin' near t' sea: no one can miss it. He stood up and shook hands with her. As he did so, he looked at her sleeping baby. 'She's liker yo' than him. A think a'll say, God bless her. With the heavy sound of his out-going footsteps, baby awoke.
"Tell me about him again!" he cried, hoarsely. "What was he like this man who took Dorothy away?" And as he listened to the description his face grew stormy with terrible wrath, for it tallied exactly with that of the man who had put Dorothy in the cab and rode away with her. Like a lightning's flash Jack tore down to the Staten Island wharf, and was just in time to catch the out-going boat.
No counsel or encouragement had any effect upon him; he did, as I have seen so many do he resigned himself to the out-going tide. Well, for the secret. He had been a felon. His crime had been committed through ministering to his wife's vanity." Here I paused. I felt Mrs. Falchion's eyes searching me.
It was impossible, however, to maintain so complete an exclusion when the products of Spain fell far short of supplying the needs of the colonists. Foreign merchants were bound to have a hand in this traffic, and the Spanish government tried to recompense itself by imposing on the out-going cargoes tyrannical exactions called "indults." The results were fatal.
The following case throws some light on this matter, reported in the same pamphlet: "An American family, considered a prize by the agent because of the fact that there were nine children, turned out to be a `flunk. They could not work in the beet-fields, they ran up a bill at the country-store, and one day the father and the eldest son, a boy of nineteen, were seen running through the railroad station to catch an out-going train.
"He told you not to come here any more advised you to hit the out-going trail didn't he?" He flushed with returning shame of it all, but quietly answered: "Yes, he said something about riding east." "Are you going to do it?" "Not to-day; but I guess I'd better keep away from here." She looked at him steadily. "Why?"
No more there is; and there have been sea-shore men, many of them, who had wandered away into the interior of the country, hundreds and hundreds of long miles, and settled there, and even got rich and old there, and yet who have come all the way back again, just to get another smell of the salt marshes and the sea-air and the out-going tide.
