Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Trail of Geronimo: Or, in the Apache Country
AT last the four years' arduous course at West Point Academy was finished.
Who of us that have been through the study, drill and training at that admirable institution can forget a single day of the eventful term spent there?
With what timidity we made our way up the long, mping hill to the array of buildings and presented our appointment, which some of us had brought all the way from the Pacific slope or the Gulf, picturing in our mind what West Point looked like, and how we would conduct ourselves after we got there? And, as is always the case, how different the reality proved from the ideal!
