Remember, never let any one make your mother or sister cry." Charlie nodded in token of his acceptance of the condition.
"All right," he said.
179 m WHEN Major Stafford galloped away, on his return to his command, the little group at the lawn gate shouted many messages after him. The last thing he heard was Charlie's treble, as he seated himself on the gate post, calling to him not to forget to make Santa Claus bring him a pair of breeches and a sword, and Evelyn's little voice reminding him of
... her "dolly that can go to sleep." Many times during the ensuing year, amid the hardships of the campaign, the privations of the march, and the dangers of battle, the Major heard those little voices calling to him.
In the autumn he won the three stars of a col- onel for gallantry in leading a desperate charge on a town, ia a perilous raid into the heart of the enemy's country, and holding the place; but none knew, when he dashed into the town at the head of his regiment under a hail of bullets, that his mind was full of toyshops and clothing stores, and that when he was so stoutly holding his position he was guarding a little boy's suit, 180 A CAPTUEED SANTA GLAUS a small sword with a gilded scabbard, and a large doll with flowing ringlets and eyes that could "go to sleep." Some of his friends dur- ing that year had charged the Major with grow- ing miserly, and rallied him upon hoarding up his pay and carrying large rolls of Confederate money about his person ; and when, just before the raid, he invested his entire year's pay in four or five ten-dollar gold pieces, they vowed he was mad.
