And the great man, who once took a party of friends out for a tally-ho ride, and through mental habit collected five cents from each guest, was so pleased at the thought of relief that he pressed the buzzer.

A moment later a buzzer.

Again the buzzer.

The buzzer sounds.

The buzzer goes on and on in impatient jerks which mount in anger.

At last, after a particularly mad splutter, to which ANTHONY longs to make retort, the buzzer gives it up.

Instantly the whole bivouac was alive, but scarcely had the bugle notes died away when the telephone buzzer began to give forth a series of sharp, staccato sounds.

Almost instantly a buzzer made sharp reply.
