He accepted O’Day’s invitation and they moved off the veranda in separate directions. He had a match and if there was enough wood there was a chance. The planking of the door was dry and there was no reason why it would not catch. “Find your ridge,” invited Bob politely, “the one behind which our river flows on and on and—” "Grandmother, what large teeth you have!".
