CHAPTER XV.
ROBERT AND HIS COMPANY.
"Good morning, gentlemen," said Robert Johnson, as he approached Colonel Robinson, the commander of the post, who was standing at the door of his tent, talking with Captain Sybil.
"Good morning," responded Colonel Robinson, "I am glad you have come.

I was just about to send for you.

How is your company getting on ?" "First rate, sir," replied Robert.
"In good health ?" "Excellent.

They are all in good health and spirits.

Our boys are used to hardship and exposure, and the hope of getting their freedom puts new snap into them." "I am glad of it," said Colonel Robinson.
