“Yes. All the men that were left were harmless. But as soon as I had given the word, I was off to meet the captain. I thought he and his bunch would never show up.” He scarcely dared to speak, so very risky was the walking; but when he could take hold of one of the veranda posts, he called: “It must be dreadful to be blind,” said Johnny to Tellef. “Right you are, Whisk—I mean, Mr. Whitney,” Bob answered in some confusion. “I suppose you’ll have to be Mister Whitney now since you are the Big Boss.
