But Mr. Wells still badly shaken and feeling unable to proceed announced, “My friends we will conclude our service with a hymn.

He knew that two had been captured, one of whom before that had carried off May Nell; but his small newspaper reading of “gangs” of counterfeiters had given him visions of dozens of desperate criminals, terrorizing communities, and equal to any bold crime.

I’ll bring your supper by and by.”,“Never mind Jobie, we want Jethro to win anyway, don’t we?” said Betty, presenting to the turkey her pocket filled with grain.,“Arsk a dorg with a tin pail tied to his ear to smile at yer,” returned Moses, sourly.,“Hurry up, Buzz!” Billy called as he raced by from the shop, where he had been for the oil can to fill the boat’s reservoir.,“I don’t give two whoops ef he does,” Betty was bubbling with suppressed mirth.,CHAPTER X SIR THOMAS KATZENSTEIN,“Your nose is out of joint, Edith!
