There’s a canyon there we might do something with—” “Oh, there’s room here for the time being. We can see about something else later. But you must be famished. Come along to my shack. It’s about supper time. You come too, fellows. The regular mess is over.” “Glad to hear it. Well, bring your paragon in and go to work.” CHAPTER IV Aunt Grenertsen’s Apples.
