Throughout election day, McLeod had been “cautiously optimistic” that his man would win.
There is a family, in the newest and best part of the town, called McLeod.
McLeod took out his watch:––“You have twenty minutes,” he said.

"Driving a car seems to go to his head," remarks Miss McLeod.
"McLeod, now is your opportunity," he called to the invisible guide.
McLeod checked himself as if he felt that he had gone too far.
McLeod smiled, if we may so speak, gravely, in acknowledgment of the compliment.
“I thought so,” cried McLeod, seizing his cap and hurrying out.
