I've got 'em all boxed nice an' snug. All I want you to do is help me carry 'em. We can do it in two trips. Ringdo, of course, 'll stay along up here. Ma's not scared of him like she is of the other things. Come along." They placed the money back in the box and bag. Then Billy, picking up the treasure, spoke gently.
