This started a new train of thought. Why had Jerry been foolish enough to show himself in the Quarter-house? Nothing could be gained by it. Could it be that he had come to warn Bob of the impending danger to the dam and consequently to himself? Perhaps the memory of the dangers they had shared and overcome in the Labyrinth had stirred him to a moment of remorse and a desire to see his chum safe.

“You want to help the Big Boss?” “Yes. Isn’t it interesting, Aunt Grenertsen? Isn’t it a beauty?” “Good day, John! Now this is very kind of you to come to me, away out here.” “You did me a good turn to-day,” he said a little huskily. “Thanks. I—I can’t say things very well but I want to tell you—”.
