There was Mother at the door again. “I don’t know. I’ve got to think about it some more. P’r’aps I can get him to explain. I’ll try to.” “But that’s not like having someone you belong to!” cried Jerry. “The Boss is all right but he isn’t a family.

Surely the spot had been chosen on account of the clear space around it and the impossibility of anyone’s coming upon it unobserved. The man had dodged on his way up because he did not want to be recognized by a prowling night watchman. Once he had arrived, no one could get near enough to be dangerous..
