"I'll thank you to mind your own business, Miss," snapped Miss Timmins hotly. "I declare! A girl growed like you running 'round in men's overalls or, what be them things you got on?" At this criticism Ruth Fielding fled, taking the skirt and Jennie's shirt-waist with her.
I states ag'in, that it's my notion, Dave who begins with Tucson Jennie they bein' man an' wife on the gentleman-lady system, tharby hatches cold neglect for himse'f. An' if it ain't for the smooth savey of Doc Peets, thar's no sport who could foretell the disastrous end.

It was Jennie's voice, and it had a tone of something besides alarm. What the sight of the fire had paralyzed in Carl, the voice awoke. "No, no! I here I safe, Jan!" he cried, clearing the fence with a bound. Cully did not hear Jennie. He saw only the curling flames over the Big Gray's head.
The doctor, after his morning call, said that the critical moment of danger had gone by.
