Curtis is in a fair way to end his days in the regular army, and Enoch Williams, to whom he has written glowing accounts of his life at “The Point,” is looking in the same direction, and longing for an opportunity to distinguish himself as one of his country’s defenders. He has a fair prospect of going to West Point. If he is ever intrusted with a command, and exhibits the same generalship in battle that he did in carrying out Huggins’s idea, and Ross’s, he will certainly win a high place in his chosen profession.
Hopkins is studying law in Baltimore, and Egan is in South America building railroads; but he is coming home next September, and has invited all his old friends, Enoch and Jones included, to meet him at his father’s house. Don is looking forward with impatience to a month’s sport with the canvas-backs and red-heads, but he does not care to see Barr again, or to be the hero of another adventure like the one we have attempted to describe in The Young Wild-Fowlers.
THE END.
