"Keep still!" cautioned Billy, "an' look yonder! See it?" Maurice swallowed hard, "I'm blame fool enough fer anythin' since I got knocked silly by that bolt," he answered, "so I'm game if you are." "No," she replied, "there's no such thing as a ghost, Billy." "I s'pose this feller an' ol' Spotba'll fight to a finish," said Billy, "but I aim to keep one snake of each kind, so let 'em scrap it out.
