Bob was in the lead and was the first to see a reflection on the horizon. “No,” said Bob. “I’ll stick to the water. I found a canoe and I am just aching to do some paddling. Come on with me.” “You go down into it, then?” asked Bob. “The Greasers making a stand, I reckon,” was Ted Hoyt’s comment. “Probably a regular battle.”.
