The wind began to blow harder; it blew colder, too, horridly cold in fact, and he felt almost frozen.

On Sundays Bob’s and Jerry’s usual plan was to go up to Thaddeus Holman’s ranch and spend the day with Link O’Day, who had taken a great fancy to Bob. Ted, of course, went home.

They had had the brown horses then. Often is the handsome boy It was a fine little boat. Johnny was captain and commanded grandly, giving many orders to the postmaster’s sons—those silly pipestems from Christiania, who did not know anything. “Can you row?” asked the gentleman with the glasses..
