"Well?" she said ominously, "I s'pose you think you've played a smart trick, you young limb!" "We knew that," cried Billy, eagerly; "that's why we come to you, Harry. You say you've found buried treasure in Ireland; won't you help us find the lost will an' money?" "Now let's get while the gettin's good," whispered Billy; and the three crept off into the shadows. "I saw the yacht leave the pier," said Billy. "She sure was a dandy, wasn't she?".
