The girls looked at one another in the mute scrutiny children bestow on newcomers, May Nell the least embarrassed of the three.,Was there to be another murder? Ought he to call? If he did wouldn’t they turn on him—kill him? No matter. Some one might be on the road and hear. And he could run pretty fast. Anyway he must risk it.，“Never mind, Bouncer. I’ve another card up my sleeve!” He patted and hugged the old dog till his tail waved once more gracefully over his back. “Here! Try this. Sic ’em!” Billy thrust the scraps of red silk under his nose; and in an instant Bouncer was off after the new scent.，Suddenly, all heads were raised and a sigh of satisfaction escaped Mrs. Wopp’s lips.，“O Billy!” Jean gasped, fear for the little, delicate girl in that eery place lending sympathy to her voice.But May Nell was not to be comforted, till that evening when she composed a wonderful ode to “The Wreck of the Fair Ellen.”
