"By George, I'm glad to see you, Carson," he said. The young man's grave face brightened and a look of seeming sadness vanished from his eyes as he surveyed Merry and Hodge. "Glad doesn't express it with me," he said. "I can't find words, fellows. By Jove! you're both looking fine and happy as lords." "Hodge ought to look happy." chuckled Merriwell. "Just married, you know." "Elsie Bellwood "
"Get off my pet corn!" growled Bruce Browning, jerking Harry back into his seat, from which he had partly risen. "If you step on that corn again you'll see stars!" "It just takes an awful long time to get there," said Elsie Bellwood. "Awful long," agreed Inza. "I don't think you'll see anything of the falls until we leave this car," said Merry. "Girls, do be dignified," urged Mrs.
The only thing that mystified Frank was why these people should be at Bellwood, so far away from Tipton. There was scarcely a chance in a thousand that they could have come accidentally. When the two men had pulled the blanket from Brady, he disclosed two packages in his hand, one resembling a hat box. He placed them on the floor. "Got the togs there?" inquired Jem. "Yes," nodded Brady.
"But who else do you mean?" "Why, my son, Robert, over there Robert Upton. Now, isn't it funny he's going right to the very school you are?" "To Bellwood?" "That's the name Bellwood is the place," assented Mr. Upton. "Wish you'd tell me what you know about it." "I don't know anything about it, except what I've read and what I've heard from friends who went there," said Frank.
We'll stand together, Bob, hey? and give them good as they send," and Frank slapped the lad on the shoulder, with a ringing laugh. "They won't haze me," muttered Bob. "Yes, they will, and then you and I will lay around to haze the new fellows who came after us," cried Frank. "Ha! ha! you'll see some fun down at Bellwood, Bob. They're a capital set of fellows, I'm told.
"So you keep pretty close to the academy for the next few days. Then I'll know if he is hanging around here anywhere." The next day Professor Elliott went away from Bellwood to visit a friend, and Frank had no chance to talk with him about Ned, as he had planned. Late that afternoon Frank strolled alone from the school grounds. He had no definite purpose in view when he started.
We'll have you looking like yourself in short order. Day after to-morrow we'll start for Chicago, stopping off a day at Niagara, as Inza Burrage and Elsie Bellwood will accompany us as far as St. Louis, and both wish to visit the falls. Fellows, it will be great sport! Makes me feel sort of bubbly and flushed all over." "You've mentioned only eight fellows in all," reminded Dick Starbright.
I want to get him a fine outfit. He can have the best, sir, I assure you. I will get him a watch. I understand these college fellows like pets. I'll buy him a pug dog." "Not for Bellwood School you won't," observed Mr. Elliott bluntly. "No, sir, that's so," assented Brady. "I'll buy him a horse and a boat, then, anything he wants, only let him come with me. We are all of us weak, sir.
There was a look in Bob Upton's eye that recalled the oft-repeated injunction of his stepfather to watch out for "tantrums." Frank arranged for the delivery of the trunks, and then made an inquiry of a truckman as to the location of Bellwood School. The man pointed out its towers about half a mile away. They passed through the business part of the little town.
"There's something he's been up to with Brady that is of interest to Ned here I am sure of that." Frank felt certain that affairs were now on a basis where a good many things would come to light within the next few hours. He was up bright and early the next morning, and was somewhat disappointed to learn that Professor Elliott had not yet returned to Bellwood School.
