Reuff Pasha, who had provisionally assumed the command of the Turkish army until the arrival of Red-chid Pasha, prudently fell back upon Acken at the approach of the Egyptians.
He had two or three companions, who flattered him and submitted to his caprices because they thought it looked well to be on good terms with the young aristocrat. These two boys were looked upon as the chief contestants for the prize offered by their teacher. Opinions differed as to which would win. "I think Luke will get the watch," said Fred Acken, a younger boy.
"You've lost the watch, Luke," said Frank Acken. "Randolph has got in first." "Yes, I supposed he would," answered Luke, quietly. "And there is Linton Tomkins coming to meet us on Randolph's skates." "Randolph is sitting down on a log taking it easy. What is your loss, Luke, is his gain." "Yes." "I think he might have come back to inquire after you, Tom, as you are a friend of his."
"You are one of the best skaters, and had an excellent chance of winning the prize. Is there any boy willing to lend Luke his skates?" "I will," said Frank Acken. "My dear boy," said the teacher, "you forget that your feet are several sizes smaller than Luke's." "I didn't think of that," replied Frank, who was only twelve years old. "You may use my skates, Luke," said Linton Tomkins.
