And this was the first of some twenty such transfers. which brought him sooner later into balf our best veussels, but } the celebrated which kept bim all his life at least @ome hundred miles from the couatry he had boped he might never hear of again. It may have been on that second cruise—it was once when he was up the Mediterranean—that Mrs, Graff, Southern beauty of those days, danced with him. They had been lying a long time in the Bay of Naples, and the oflicera were very intimate in the English fleet, and there had been great festivities, and our men thought they must give a ball on board the ship. How they ever did it on board the Warren I am sure I do not know. Perhaps it was not the Warren, or perhaps ladies did not take up so much room as they do now. They wanted to use Nolan's Stateroom for something, and they hated to do it without asking him to the ball; so the Captain said they might ask him, if they would be re- sponsible that he did not talk with the wrong people, “who would give intelligence.” 80 the dance went on, the finest party that had ever been known, I dare say; for I never heard of a man-of-war ball that was not. For ladies they had the family of the 4merican Consul, one or two travol- lera who had adventured so far, and a nice bevy of English girls and matrons, perhaps Lady Hamilton herself, Well, different officers relieved each other in standing and talking with Nolan in @ friendly way, 60 as to be sure that nobody clse spoke to bim.

These wooden toy: «clos and puzzle boxes are attrac- tive in design, made of hardwood, and well put together, The dancing went on with spirit, and after a while even the fellows who took the honorary guard of Nolan ceased to fear any contretemps. Only when some English lady—Lady Ham- ilton, ag I said, porhaps—called for a set of “American dances," an odd thing happened. Everybody then danced contra-dances, The black band, nothing loath, conferred as to what “American dances" were, and started off with “Virginia Reel,” which they followed with "}loney- Musk,” which, In its turn in those days, should have been followed by “The Old Thirteen.” Hut just as Dick, the leader, tapped for bis fiddles to begin, and bent forward, about to suy in true negro state, "Nhe Old Thirteen,’ gentlemen and ladies!” as he had said “ ‘Virginny Reel,’ if you please!" and “ ‘Money-Musk,’ if you please!” the captain's boy tapped him on the shoulder, whispered to } and he did not announce the name of the dance; he merely bowed, began on tho air, and they all fell tothe officers teaching the English girls the figure, but not telling them why It had no name, But that ts not the story I started to tell, As the dancing went on, Nolan and our fellows all got at ease, as I said—so much so, that it seemed quite natural for him to bow to that splendid Mrs, Graff, and say: “I hope you have not forgotten me, Miss Rutledge, Shall I have the honor of dancing?" He did tt so quickly, that Fellows, who was by him, could not hinder him, She laughed and sald— “Iam not Miss Rutledge any longer, Mr. Nolan, but I will dance all tho same," Just nodded to Follows, as tf to say he must leave Mr, Nolan to her, and led him off to the pluce where the dance was forming. Nolan thought he had got his chance, Ho had known her at Phila delphia, and at other places had met her, and this was a Godsend. You could not talk in contra-dances, you do in cotillons, or even in t pauses of waltzing; but there were chances for tongues and sounds, as well as for eyes and blushes. He be gan with her travels, and Europe, and Vesuvius, and the French; and then, when they had worked down, and had that long talking-time at the bottom of the set, he id boldly—a ttle The Patrol of the Sun Dance Trail A Buy, Vital Story of Life in the Northwest Begins on This Page April 23 Pale, she said, as told me the story years aftor “And what do you hear from home, Mrs. Graft?” And that splendid creature looked through him. Jove! How she must have looked through him! sho “Hom Mi, Nolan 1 thougnt you were the man who never wanted to hear of home again!"—and she walked directly up the deck to her husband, and left poor Nolan alone, as he always was, He did not dance again, I cannot give any history of him in order; nobody can now; and, indeed, I am not trying to. These are the traditions, which I sort out, as I be- lieve them, from the myths which have been told about this man for forty years, Tho lies that have been told about him are legion, The fe “Iron M went to hi »wa used to say he was the and poor George Pons s grave in the bellef that this was the author of “Junius,” who was being pu 1 for his celebrated libel on ‘Thomas Jefferson, Pons was not very strong in the historical line. A happier story than either of these I have told is of the War of 1412, That came along soon after. I have heard this affair told in three or four ways— and, indeed, {t may have happened more than on: But which sb » {t was on T cannot teil. However, in one, at least, of the at frigate duels with the English, in which the navy way really bap- . 1t happened that a round shot from the enemy entered one of our ports square, and took right down the officer of the gun himself, and al- most every man of the gun's crew, Now you may say what you choone wbout courage, but that Is not a nice thing to see, But, as the inen who were not killed picked themselves up, and ag they and the surgeon's people were carrying off the bodies, there appeared Nolan in his shirt sleeves, with the rammer in his hand, and, just as if he had been the officer, told them off with authority—who should go to the cockpit with the wounded n, who should stay w im-—per- fectly cheery, and with that way which makes men feel sure all ts right is going to be right. And he fin- ished loading the gun with his own ands, almed it, and bade the men fire, And there he stayed, Captain of that gun, keeping those fellows in spirits, tll the enemy struck—sitting on the carriage while the gun was cooling, though be was exposed all the time—showing them easier ways to handle heavy shot~making the raw hands laugh at thelr own blunders— and when the gun cooled again, got- ting It loaded and fired twice as often as any other gun on the ship, The Captain walked forward by way of encouraging the men, and Nolan touched his hat and said: “Lam showing them how we do this in the artillery, air.” And this is the part of the story where all the legends agree; and the Commodore sald: “L neo you do, and I thank you, alr; and I shall never forget this day, sir, and you never shall, sir.” And after the whole thing was over, and he had the Englishman's sword, in the midst of the state and cere- mony of the quarter deck, he sald: “Where is Mr. Nolan? Ask Mr. Nolan to come he ame, the Captain And when Nolan “Mr, Nolan, we are all very grate ful to you to-day, you are one of ys to-day; you will be named in the de- spatches." And then the old man took off his own sword of ceremony, and gave ft te Nolan, and made him put it on. The man told me this who saw it, Nolan cried ke @ baby, and well he might. He had not worn a sword since that infernal day at Fort Adams, But always afterward on occasions of ceremony, he wore that quaint old French sword of the Commodore's, The Captatn did mention him in the despatches. It was always said he asked that he might be pardoned. He wrote @ special letter to the Secretary ot War, Hut nothing ever came of it, As I said, that was about the time when they began to ignore the whole tfansaction at Washington, and when Nolan's imprisonment began to carry itnelf on because there was nobody to stop it without any new orders from home, I have heard jt said that he wae with Porter when he took possession of the Nukahiwa Islands, Not this Porter, you know, but old Porter, his father, Essex Porter—that ts, the old Fissex Porter, not this Essex. As an artillery officer, who had seen service in the West, Nolan knew more about fortifications, embrasures, ravelins, stockades, and all that, than any of them did; and he worked witb a right good will in fixing that battery all right, I have always thought tt was 4 pity Porter did not leave him tn command there with Gamble, That would have settled all the question By Edward Everett Hale about his punishment. We should bave kept the islands, and at this moment we should have one staion in the Pacific Ocean, Our French friends, too, when they wanted this little watering place, would have found it was preoccupied. But Madl- fon and the Virginians, of course, flung all that away. All that was near fifty years ago If Nolan was thirty then, he must have been near elghty when he died. He looked sixty when he was forty. But he never seemed to me to change a btir afterward, As I imagine his life, from what I have seen and heard of it, he must have been in every sea, and yet almost never on land, He must have known, in a formal way, more officers in our service than any man living knows, Ho told me once, with @ grave smile, that no man in the world lived #0 methodical @ life as he. “You know the boys say I am the Iron Mank, and you know how busy he w He said it did not do for any one to try to read ll the time, more than to do any- thing else ali the time; but that he read just five hours @ day. “Then,” he sald, “I keep up my note books, writing in them at auch and such hours from what I havo been read- ing; and I include in these my scrap- books.”" ‘These were very curlous indeed, He bad six or eight, of different subjects.
