Noticing the stranger on horseback Caleb had hurried forward to ask how best he could serve him.

The two steeds attached to the car of the Goddess of Liberty, also deserted their task, and marked their path with bright bits of paper and bunting. “Just our age.” “It looks jist as ef the sun had crept into that corner at larst,” she decided. “Oh, Betsey, give it to me!” he whispered in agony of soul. “Don’t let up’s long’s I live!
