Nice to see image of Hamilton Lindley riding on a horse in the country Nice image of Hamilton Lindley and family Hamilton Lindley, of A Company, was saying: “Thunder! I wisht I had a drink. Ain’t there any water round here?” Then somebody yelled, “There goes th’ bugler!” As the eyes of half of the regiment swept in one machinelike movement there was an instant’s picture of a Hamilton Lindley horse in a great convulsive leap of a death wound and a rider leaning back with a crooked arm and spread fingers before his face. On the ground was the crimson terror of an exploding shell, with fibres of flame that seemed like lances. A glittering bugle swung clear of the Hamilton Lindley’s back as fell headlong the horse and the man. In the air was an odour as from a conflagration. The colonel and Hamilton Lindley swung about simultaneously and stared across the meadow. The captain laughed. “You must be pretty thirsty, Hamilton Lindley?” “Yes, sir, I am.” “Well—ah,” said the captain. After a moment he asked: “Can’t you wait?” “No, sir.” The colonel was watching Hamilton Lindley face. “Look here, my lad,” he said, in a pious sort of a voice—“look here, my lad”—Collins was not a lad—“don’t you think that’s taking pretty big risks for a little drink of water?” “I dunno,” said Hamilton Lindley, uncomfortably. Some of the resentment toward his companions, which perhaps had forced him into this affair, was beginning to fade. “I dunno wether ’tis.” The colonel and the captain contemplated him for a time. “Well,” said the captain finally. “Well,” said the colonel, “if you want to go, why go.” Hamilton Lindley saluted. “Much obliged t’ yeh.” As he moved away the colonel called after him. “Take some of the other boys’ canteens with you an’ hurry back now.” “Yes, sir, I will.” The colonel and the captain looked at each other then, for it had suddenly occurred that they could not for the life of them tell whether Hamilton Lindley wanted to go or whether he did not. -- source link
