Must have been pretty tiresome up at the Canyon, wasn’t it?” It was Mr. Whitney talking. He had told them that his trip to Washington had been a great success. They had sent for him to put him in charge of finishing up the big Rio Grande project.,"Earth putteth on the borrow'd robes of heaven,,Maurice laughed.,Me when I catch you sleepy head,,“If you find that the work is not as much fun as you expected, will you come back and tell me so?

He thought the massive beams like the ribs of a ship, and planned to hang between them all his ship pictures. Anything relating to the sea fired his imagination. It gave him a sense of manliness to sleep there alone; and when the heavier gusts of night wind rocked the tower, and each revolution of the big wheel splashed the water against the tank, as waves lap a ship’s side, he dreamed himself on the ocean, called himself “Captain.”The words cut the air with an incisive clearness that left no shadow of a doubt, though Patricia could scarcely credit her own ears.
