excerpt from "A Ride in the Night" by Katharine E. Wilkie

Most of the men roared with laughter. They seemed to think the idea of Will being a soldier was very funny.

"He doesn't think the King could use him yet!" repeated one of the men. "He's right. King George doesn't want fighters as young as he is. Ha! Ha! Ha!"

Another soldier was watching Will closely. This man had not laughed so much as his companions. "What are you doing out so early, boy?" he demanded.

Will gave a start. He hoped the man did not notice it. He did some fast thinking. "I'm on the way to my aunt's house, sir."

"Where does she live?" asked the soldier. He kept his eyes fixed on Will.
