My—boy!” Mrs. Bennett bent over him; and he felt a tear where her cheek touched his. “Dad an’ Mosey don’t look orful happy,” she laughed. “Smile at me, Mosey.” Mrs. Wopp’s face assumed a forgiving air as she accepted this defence.

“We’ll play there’s a strike in the saw-mills, Dutchy, and this is scab labor,” Billy excused amiably. And for a fact the white cotton string carried the messages quite safely from the “Front,” where Jimmy and George laid out the “line” over wonderful grades, across impossible gorges; and “wired” back for further orders. Harry Potter was the operator at the “Front,” and Vilette,—“Women do operate, you know,” she said,—Vilette was the proud holder of “the key” at Headquarters, where Clarence Hammond strutted around as Messenger; and because he was the “son of the Boss,” bullied his Cousin Harry unmercifully.

Though why children who had never been out of Vine County should know so much about queens no one thought to ask..
