“No need to bother about the Greasers in camp. They won’t make any trouble.” It was the first word spoken by their captive. “Oh, eat and drink and have fun. If you want to swing in the big swing, for instance, you can do that.” “The whole school said he was the strongest, and that was disgusting, for it wasn’t true. I’m a great deal stronger than Tellef.

Judging it, therefore, the safer way of the two to remain where he was, he endeavoured to await his fate with fortitude, when suddenly the loud voices of the murderers burst upon his ear, and he heard steps advancing quickly towards the spot where he lay.
