What matter if the telegraph poles that were to be just twelve feet—that is, twelve inches—fell short or long sometimes. “She’s at Vine Hill—miles away; we’ll beat her if we hurry.” His words were a bit breathless. “Grand chain,” bawled Geordie evidently feeling his importance, “dos-et-dos, ladies’ chain, swing on the corners, and put some feelin’ in your step. “Last November.”.
