Keith also had generally passed an interesting day . Immediately after breakfast he went to his office , and conscientiously sat a while . Sometimes he wrote letters or cast up accounts ; but there could not be much of this to do . About ten or eleven o'clock his impatient temperament had had enough of this , so he drifted over to the Monumental engine house . After considerable thought he had decided to join this company . It represented about the class of men with whom he wanted to affiliate himself -- the influential men of the lawyer , Southern-politician , large business men type . There were many of these volunteer organizations .
