But Bob was too much in earnest to take the last remark seriously. He laughed. “Oh, I’m a tenderfoot all right but I know something about paddling a canoe. Had a lot of it last summer and I can swim. And if it is not too expensive, I’ve got the money. Any other objections?” “Wasn’t much after all your trouble to get down, was it?” said a voice behind him. Bob looked up to find that Jerry had appeared. “No,” Bob gasped. “Mig—Miguel got away!” “How did the harvesting of Aunt Grenertsen’s apples go this afternoon?” asked Mother..
