forces
were, as I
have said,
scattered.
For his
promotion
gave him
no more
time for
love-making.
He was
foreman
now. He
had said
to Judge
Henry,
“I’ll try
to please
yu’.” And
after the
throb of
emotion
which
these
words had
both
concealed
and
conveyed,
there came
to him
that sort
of
intention
to win
which
amounts to
a
certainty.
Yes, he
would
please
Judge
Henry! He
did not
know how
much he
had
already
pleased
