You got my last favor, of course?
And ain't you regular knocked up to see me a Baron?
Yes, a Baron--a real, live Baron! I'll tell you all about it.

You see I was here two or three years ago--the time of Mentana--and fought on the Pope's side.

Odd thing, too, wasn't it, for an American?
But so it was.

Well, they promoted me, and wanted me to stay.

But I couldn't fix it.
