Soon the six Yorkers appeared around the corner of the log fence which enclosed the cattleyard.
"Then Simon Halpen compassed his death I am sure of it!" cried the boy. "You well know how he hated father. Halpen would never forget the beech-sealing he got last fall. He threatened to be terribly revenged on us; and Bryce and I heard him threaten father, too, when he fought him upon the crick bank and father tossed the Yorker into the middle of the stream." Bolderwood chuckled.
