Groom in-doors this morning, Mr. Pierce. Is Waring home?
gpt
No, sir; Ananias told me when he brought me up my coffee.

Hold the morning report, then, until I come to the office. I fear we have both first lieutenants to report absent to-day. You and I may have to go to town: so get your breakfast early. We will ride. I doubt if even an ambulance could get through. Tell me, Pierce, have you spoken to Waring about--about that matter we were discussing? Has he ever given you any idea that he had received warning of any kind from old Lascelles--or any of his friends?
gpt
No, sir. I've had no chance to speak, to be sure, and, so far as I could observe, he and Mr. Lascelles seemed on very excellent terms only a few days ago.

Well, I wish I had spoken myself,
