Col. S. But you, boy; what will you--

Gordon. Oh, trust me, sir; I tell you trust me. I shall be all
right. Go on before it is too late and let them hide you.

[Enter Bev.

Bev. The horse is there. You know the tree, father; you can find it.

Col. S. I'll take you at your word (he clasps his hand). At
midnight of the 22nd.

Gordon. Remember when you hear the breaking of the glass.

Col. S. Where's your mother?

Bev. They're waiting in the dining room.

[Exit Col. S.

Gordon (intently). Can I trust you with the life of Morgan's army?

Bev. Show me. I'd give my life for Morgan.

Gordon. Then do what I say. Run to George's room, get me out a
suit of his clothes; lay them on the bed; leave the door open. Then go
to Charlotte and tell her I must see her here at once. Keep your mother
and Fair in the dining room.
