Wait a moment, Captain Hallam, I'd rather do it myself!" And she turned lightly and ran out to the dark porch. The trooper holding Hallam's horse: sat his own saddle, wrapped to the eyes in his heavy overcoat, long lance with its drooping pennon slanting stiffly athwart the wintry wilderness of stars. "Soldier!" she called gently from the porch.
Fisher was very kind and hospitable, and built up a fire, and said they should be perfectly dry and warm before they went to bed. So the girls bade Tom good-night, and he went back to Mr. Hallam, and they, feeling very cold and sleepy and drenched, were glad enough to be taken care of, and put to bed like babies, after Mrs. Fisher's good, motherly fashion.
