But how?","Then," cried Billy, hotly, "you're as big a thief as they are.","You may try just as hard as ever you like," she says, with dignity: "I sha'n't!"，Finally Bob’s father had to go back to New York. Several telegrams had come and the last one could not be disregarded. The night before he left Mr. Hazard led Bob out into the grounds. When they came to the fence, they leaned on it and started talking. The moon was up and shed its light on the flat fields. In the hum of the country stillness, only the summer whistle of the quail and the sharp plaintive cry of the whippoorwill were distinct.，"Afterward you stole the body of the man you murdered. Dido helped you to do so, and drugged my servant, Jaggard, with the perfume of the devil-stick poison, in order that the theft might be carried out with safety."，Going to the place where his friend had lain, Talking Rock sat down and mourned, wailing long and loud.
