could see the captain, later In the

Here's Sergeant Spruce, who has

those very words once said to girl
visiting the camp, and they chung to
his memory with the persistent sweet
ness of the odor of violets.
Today he was thinking much more
of the captain than of young Dan

lad who had begged and clustered his
mother into letting him go. He would
not let her know how Ill he was, but
had the captain write to his married
sister, in the same town but not the
same house. She, in sore perplexlty,
wrote to both the captain and spruce
and kept her trunk packed, expecting
a telegram. Danvers used to talk OF
her and of his mother and of his lit
tie nephews and nieces to Spruce, at
first in mere broken sentences-this
was when he was so i'll they expected
that he might die any day-later in
little happy snatches of "reminiscences
He was perfectly aware that he owed
his life to Spruces nursing; and ne
gave Spruce the same admiration
which he had used to give the great
man who commanded the university
