Elderberry was under a convincing delusion that he could actually hear the thoughts that were rattling round in Mr. Greenbaum's brain. "You there?" he inquired presently. "Oh, yes, I'm here!" retorted Greenbaum. "This is the devil of a note! Have you spoken to Chippingham?" "Yes." "What does he say?" "He says it's awkward.

Our books would show. But I repeat we disavow this circular and we deny any responsibility for this man, Elderberry."

"Is it all right for us to underwrite the stock ourselves at half price?" inquired Mr. Beck. "I mean is it legal?" "Sure!" reiterated Mr. Chippingham. "Somebody's got to underwrite it; why not us?" "Move we adjourn," said Mr. Greenbaum. "Elderberry the usual." Mr. Elderberry removed from his change pocket five glittering gold pieces and slid one across the glass sheet to each director.

He wilted, became panic-stricken, turned and fled to his horse and galloped away. Well out of reach he turned and waved his blade in a dramatic threat. Then he disappeared behind an islet of palmetto scrub. Payne stalked back to where Higgins and his negroes were slashing into the elderberry brush. "Call 'em off," he said abruptly. "We're going to build a fence.

Elderberry swept with a bland inquiring eye the shore of the glassy sea about which his associates were gathered. "I've been over the ground," announced Greenbaum "and it's a good gamble. We want Horse's Neck for ourselves at any rate until we are confident that it's a real lemon. Half a million will do it. I'll personally put up a hundred thousand."

Rabbit hadn't waited long before he saw some one come out of the elderberry bushes and hurry up to the stump. It was Peter Mink! He had a bag in his hand. And while Mr. Rabbit was watching, he squeezed through the hole in the stump. Even for Peter Mink the hole was almost too small.
