Although he was badly handicapped in being a boy, yet in some miraculous manner there might be an exception made in his favor. CHAPTER XIII THE HIDDEN HUT Mrs. Wopp was overcome with laughter at the bare memory of the picture her irate husband had presented. The green-eyed monster, always seeking prey, had at last found a victim, and proceeded in true green-eyed fashion to wage ruthless warfare..
