"My Attainment of the Pole"
Frederick A. Cook
At last he was there-only a few trees blowing a little, a little white dust curling over the road, as though there had been no rain, and then suddenly the laughing face of Cards, no longer now a boy, but a man, more handsome than ever, laughing at him as he Battled round the corner.
"Fortitude"
Hugh Walpole
He Battled with the crowd dragging the black bag with him and shouting sometimes in sheer excitement and good spirits.
