You can look up your regiment in the morning."
Captain Anderson replied that he would be happy to accept this
invitation, and the four immediately went to the quarters provided for
the two lads when they had returned to the army from the air flight
from Russia.
Here, tired out and almost exhausted, they turned in immediately--in
spite of the fact that the sun had not yet sunk below the horizon--and
soon all lay snug and comfortable in the arms of Morpheus.
CHAPTER IX.
OFF TO THE SOUTH.
The following morning Captain Anderson bade the boys good-by and set out
to find his own regiment. Stubbs also said good-by, announcing that he
must be moving in his search for news. He had been given credentials days
before and, representing as he did one of the greatest newspapers in the
world, was one of the few correspondents to have the freedom of the
allied lines.
Hal and Chester idled about the greater part of the day. There had been a
lull in the fighting, and, although they had reported to General French,
no duties had been assigned them; but along in the afternoon they were
again summoned to headquarters.
