Maurice, who had climbed the fence so as to get a glimpse of the interior of his home through a window, whistled softly as his eyes took in the scene within. "He is very kind," said he. "I should like the berth." "Now let's get while the gettin's good," whispered Billy; and the three crept off into the shadows..
