The juggler took from his basket a piece of wood about two feet in length and some four inches in diameter. "You see this?" he said. Bathurst took it in his hand. "It looks like a bit sawn off a telegraph pole," he said. "Will you come outside, sahib?" The night was very dark, but the lamp on the table threw its light through the window onto the drive in front of the veranda.
"I'm going to catch a big fish," said Flossie, as she laid her doll down beside the sleeping dog Snap, and took Freddie's pole. "Don't fall in that's all," cautioned Mrs. Bobbsey. "I'll watch her," offered Dorothy, for Nan had gone down to help dry the dishes, it being her "turn."
Lambert shifted to keep them guessing, but kept away from the pole where Kerr was chained, behind which he might have found shelter.

"I'd go right enough if it wasn't for you," George answered gloomily, "but you know they always say I lead you into mischief and if we went to the North Pole we should get our boots wet, as likely as not, and you remember what they said about not going on the grass." "They said the lawn," said Jane. "We're not going on the lawn. Oh, George, do, do let's.
In all likelihood he is not a man, but only a boy; for it is boys who are selected to perform this elevated and apparently dangerous service.
