Dick Prescott, unseen, stirred almost under the fellow's feet. Flop! Bump! Caught by the legs, by that famous football player, Dick Prescott, Evarts simply had to go down on his back. In the same instant Reade leaped, then bent over the prostrate foe. Evarts was too much dazed to resist much. Tom snatched the revolver out of his hand.
The "Morton" moved slowly by, Tom, by the aid of the searchlight, noting the extent of the disaster. "Get back aft, Evarts," ordered the young engineer, turning and beholding the late foreman. "We don't want you here." For a moment or two it looked as though Evarts would refuse. Then, with a growl, he rose and picked his way aft. By this time the other men who had been in his gang were awake.
Here was a mystery, and as usual, the chief mystery was the means of making sure that any mystery existed. All Adams's great friends Fish, Cox, Hoar, Evarts, Sumner, and their surroundings were precisely the persons most mystified. They knew less than Adams did; they sought information, and frankly admitted that their relations with the White House and the Treasury were not confidential.
The Capitol was full of the rich and racy characterizations, epigrams, and sarcasms which Senator Conkling was daily pouring out upon President Hayes, and especially Secretary Evarts. By all the rules of senatorial courtesy in those machine days, a member of the Cabinet from New York should have been a friend of its United States senator. Mr.
John, his brother, and Captain John, his first cousin, arrived from Dedham, Essex County, England, in 1634. From Captain John Sherman are descended Roger Sherman, the signer of the Declaration of Independence, Hon. William M. Evarts, the Messrs. Hoar, of Massachusetts, and many others of national fame. Our own family are descended from the Hon. Samuel Sherman and his son; the Rev.
"I hired this boat out to that man, the one you call Evarts, but I didn't know what he was up to." "You didn't know that torpedoes are used for wicked work either, eh?" pressed Lieutenant Dick. "I'll swear that I didn't know what it was that he brought on board," cried the skipper. "Evarts said it was a new device for killing fish at wholesale." "You may be telling the truth," Tom broke in.
Frank went in and tapped on the glass, and Miss Evarts came and gave him the letter. Frank came home in triumph, and papa said it was a finer piece of duty performed than the celebrated sacrifice of Casabianca's would have been, had it happened that Casabianca ever made it." That is the shortest of these "compositions." It is much the best.
The President was defended by able counsel, including former Attorney-General Stanbery, Benjamin R. Curtis, who had earlier sat upon the Supreme Court, and William M. Evarts, an eminent lawyer and leader of the bar in New York.
He looked somewhat like William Maxwell Evarts, but was a heavier set man. Places where old Polka Dot sat down and accumulated rest for himself are still shown to city people whose faith was not overworked while young. Old Polka Dot was a firm man, with double teeth all around, and his prowess got into the personal columns of the papers every little while.
During his official term above mentioned, Mr. Evarts accompanied a prominent member of the British Parliament to Mount Vernon.
