Sir Galahad fellcd him like an OF.
ed on the rank and file the first year Of
the war. Bralligan's haunting words,
only partially audible to Winn as be
issued from the front of the building,
were distinctly heard by domestics lying
in wait for chance to borrow Of the
steward and pick up gossip at the back.
By stables that evening the story was
being told high and low all over the
post; even the children heard with
eager yet uncomprehending ears, and so
it happened that just as tho drums Of
the infantry were sounding first call for
retreat parade and the womenfolk were
beginning to muster on the porches and
the warriors Of the foot along the op.
posite side at the barracks and as Cap.
tain Barclay, light rattan stick in his
hand, came strolling back from stables,
Lieutenant Brayton at his side, little
Jim Lawrence mado q dash from q
group Of children, and, in the full hear.
ing Of several officers and half dozen
women, shrill, eager, childish voice
piped out the fatal words:
"Uncle Gal-Uncle Gal-what did
Mr.. Bralligan mean by telling Mr..
VIM TO send his wife to you for
money!"
Laura Winn herself was on the near
est piazza at the moment, stunningly
handsome, and posing, evidently for q
bow from the next door neighbors as
they came by. She and every other
woman there distinctly heard the words
and marked tho effect.
Sir Galahad's face flushed crimson.
He caught his little friend up in his
arms and held him close to his burning
cheek. Hush, Jimmy boy. He meant
nothing, and soldiers never repent such
nonsense. Run to Sister Ada and help
her get everything ready for papa g com.
ing. Think, Jimmy, he'll be here by
tattoo" And with parting hug he
cot the youngster down at his doorstep
and started him on his way. Then,
courteously raising his cap to tho gather.
ing on the nearest porch, and noting, as
did they, that Mrs. VIM had disap.
peared within her hall, Barclay quickly
entered his own portal, and nabbed
Brayton as he was making palpabls
"sneak" for the rear door. The young.
ster found escape impossible Willy
nilly, the boy told the story as it had
been told to him, Barclay standing look
ing straight into his eyes as though
reading his very soul, yet never saying
