Ted showed up at camp one night just before quitting time. He was waiting for Bob when the latter knocked off and had started homewards.,Jean, too, crossed the little bridge, climbed the fence, mounted her wheel, and rolled off down the dusty road.,“You like Big Boss Whitney?”,Mrs. Wilson cleared her throat. "They do say that Mr. Hinter visits the light-house regular every week. Have you heard that, Missus Keeler?"，Bob thought he detected a little note of disappointment in his chum’s tone, but the words of congratulation seemed sincere.，Though Mr Lawrence had communicated the intelligence of the girl being on board and of his holding sealed orders from Captain[Pg 270] Acton in confidence to Mr Eagle, the sensations excited in this plain and acid sailor by the extraordinary, astounding, and unexpected revelations had filled him to bursting point with a fever and passion for giving the news.
