She was a beautiful golden-haired princess, though quite small, and had flowers in her hair and put some in the cap of Jimmie Time behind the nickel badge and said she would make him her court dwarf or jester or knight, or something; only the scout who was with her said this was rather silly and that they had better be getting home or they knew very well what would happen to them.
"I want you to act as a scout here, to keep watch on this road and the cross road into the Reserve. When I was in town I got you a hat regulation O. D., with a green cord around it, as I told you. Go on over to the car and get it it's yours." Sim walked slowly over to the car and peered in at the new head gear. He took it up gingerly by the rim, regarding the green cord with curiosity.
Captain Bartlett and his crew, Ooqueah, Pooadloonah, and Harrigan; and George Borup and Karko, Seegloo, and Keshungwah, have set sail and are on their way. Captain Bartlett made the trail and George Borup was the scout, and a rare "Old Scout" he was. He kept up the going for three days and then came back to the land to start again with new loads of supplies.
No need for them to go on injuring each other and each other's people. They could call it a draw and quit right now. If the white soldiers demanded Jefford's services, all well and good; he would go and serve them as scout or interpreter or guide, and do what fighting one must do when he is on the war-path.
Captain Douglas nodded. "One of my officers paid them a call. He's a sharp one, and he made some kind of excuse for getting into their tent. He came back and reported they were apparently on a hunting expedition of some kind with riot guns. I took a car full of armed troopers and we dropped in. One of the Scout leaders turned out to be a man who was in the same FBI class that I attended.
At that time hardly even a scout had quitted British territory; now almost every mile of railway and every considerable town of the two republics, except Pietersburg, was in the possession of the British Army; the Boer Governments had been expelled; Natal was free; organized resistance had ceased; the remnants of a baffled and bewildered enemy were prowling aimlessly in small bodies.
No signs of the enemy were met with, and at last the party stood on the summit of the hill. It was entirely unoccupied by the Americans. "Well, my fine fellows," laughed the scout, "I reckon ye've been doing a grist of work, and ye might jest as well have been sitting down quietly smoking yer pipes. What on arth possessed ye to leave this hill unguarded?" In point of fact General St.
I don't want dinner want bee tree. All who feel just so an' similar follow me. Here flies honey-bee right now. Watch her!" And the bee sailed right to Matt's tree. "Oh, look at the bees buzzing around that hole. Let me get at it," cried an excited scout. "Not too familiar," warned Chick-chick. "Bees have feelin's. D'ye never hear the piece: "How doth the little honey bee In self defense excel.
There seemed no other way. However, Jim was an experienced scout, as the reader well knows, and his skill could be put to use inside of walls as well as out on the desert or in the pathless mountains, where he might be searching for some obscure trail. He crawled over the heavily carpeted floor on his hands and knees to the first door, but he found no trace to guide him.
"You said it," Hervey answered cheerily; "just about a mile or so of tracks. I guess you think I'm kind of happy-go-lucky, don't you?" "I don't blame you for not remembering all the things you've done," Tom said, "and all the rules and tests and like that. But most every scout goes in for some particular thing. Maybe it's first aid, or maybe it's signaling.
