"Hello-o! Hello, the motor boat!" "Hello!"
Bent only on reaching a given point as quickly as possible, the boys paid no attention to anything else save getting over the ground rapidly, and the farmer's voice rang out long and loud before they realized that they heard it. "Hello! Hello-o-o! Hello-o-o-o!" was the cry.
Here Grassette gave the signal to shout aloud, and the voice of the Sheriff called out: "Hello, Bignold! Hello! Hello, Bignold! Are you there? Hello!" His voice rang out clear and piercing, and then came a silence a long, anxious silence. Again the voice rang out: "Hello! Hello-o-o! Bignold! Bigno-o-ld!" They strained their ears. Grassette was flat on the ground, his ear to the earth.

He had been relating, with great gusto, some adventure in which he had played a prominent part, and raising his broad hand in the air he brought it down on a table near him, as he exclaimed: "And if any detective comes skulking around this shanty, I swear I'll cut out his sneaking heart, and make him eat it raw" when the sound of horses broke the thread of his discourse, and a voice was heard shouting: "Hello-o-o, the house!"
"He can't be far off," replied Donald, "Give him a call." "Hello-o-o, Gerald!" shouted Rand, but Gerald did not answer. "Hello, there! What's ail the noise about?" demanded Colonel Snow, who had followed Pepper onto the landing. "Why, boys, what are you doing here?" "We can't find Gerald," explained Donald, who was looking in ail kinds of impossible places.
