Ravenel didn't bring him to pow-wow with pop? Of course he had some purpose some plan. It's only you that's all sympathies no plans."

"Oh oh mm mm mm."
I shan't take anybody along that can't show a good report." "By jinks! we'll have to be on our good behavior," observed Tom, after he had read his father's letter. "That's so," responded Sam.

They joshed Bud, who grinned and took it good-naturedly, and found another five dollars in his pocket to bet this time with Pop, who kept eyeing him sharply and it seemed to Bud warningly. But Bud wanted to play his own game, this time, and he avoided Pop's eyes.
