~ This good humored threat fell on needless ears
Like most good natured grumblefs7 Giles barb
was considered worse than bis bite His comrades
laughed, and Captain Carbery prepared himself
for good nights ,repose. He was a Short, fat
choleric, little man, Of rubieund ylsage, and bad
the; dread Of ap6plexy continually before him;
which the spare diet and severe hatdstips of che
camp had, however, somewhat diminished. Ihs
conversation alluded TO- took place ,in Che yard o.
the Grimball House, ut thelootsof q wide spread
ing hyeloak, just in rear LOT the building. ahe
captain usually INDUCED in smoking pipe oesore
retiring to rest, but he did not venture 70 ignt
match, until he made his way into one OF the back
rooms Of the building, where no lookout 'of s the
enemy coulddetect the tei.tale light Even when
be came forth, the bowl Of his pipe was carefully
concealed under the lappels Of his capacious jack'
ct, and the Captain reishsd hR pipe all the more
on account OF it's being stolen enloyment Otners
Of the soldiers around him, borrowed fire from from
ais pipe, and there were at least dozen otthem
squatting IN the obscutity Of the old oaks shadow
with Their pipes concealed under their iappels,
looking IKE group Of foren cassowaries reposing,
with their bills thrust under their wings. Thus
sitting, they iconyersed together in low muttered
tones that could not have been heard dozen rods.
His pipe being finished, Capt Carbery prepared
to sleep but not after the rude fashion Of thecamp
He liyested himself Of everything but his shirt,
drawers and socks, and rolled up his stout jacket,
with its huge sleeves, together with his pantaoons,
to form pillow for his head. Enyeloping him
self in couple Of blankets, he lay ct the foot Of
the tree and was soon soundly asleep. ;.tia ii5a
All followed his example, except Giles Shorter
and anotheryeteran, Robin Iasster, who, with their
blankets thrown around them, sat tagainst the body
Of tree about thirty yards off. IL aiAga> .5t

'I'll swear l won stand it, cried Giles Hes
got his head 80 high that the wind can't come
through straight I'll fix him 80 he'll breathe
easier" = h.aaa ,., ,n:; ~. .i :'o. .s.
Stepping up to the tree where the captain was
vleen;no Giles drew ont the bundle from under
,be sleensr's head lanphinp To himself at the nu-
merous erup,s and mutterings with which his
friendly interference was met. Disearding the
cantain's pantaloons from the bundle, he threw
