"We can move the whole company over the Canadian border, and before Bilby can do anything over there we'll have finished 'The Long Lane's Turning. That's the only way I see out of the mess." "But think of the expense!" "Sure! I'm thinking of that all the time," grumbled Hooley. "And don't you forget that the boss never allows me to lose sight of it.
"Number one sneakee him! She " He nodded violently toward Ruth, thus drawing Bilby's attention to the girl. Bilby strained his fat neck forward to see the girl more closely. There were other sounds coming from the passage. "What's doing, Mr Bilby?" asked a gruff voice. The fat little man was panting. He pointed waveringly at Ruth. "Here's a pretty mess," he gasped.
And this very attempt of the rival picture producer to foul his trail impressed Ruth that something serious regarding Wonota and her father was afoot. If the Indian girl had not gone with Bilby, where had she gone? And where was Totantora? Ruth could not believe that either Wonota or her father would prove faithless to their contract with Mr. Hammond not intentionally, at least.
His glaring eyes seemed almost popping from their sockets. His copper-colored face was a mask of demoniacal rage. His dignity as an Indian and his feelings as a father had been outraged. Yet, Ruth was positive that the figure in the roadster beside Horatio Bilby was not Wonota, the chief's daughter.
Not unless they are armed with a proper warrant." He turned his back on the visitors and started toward the nearest bungalow. "You'll be sorry for this, Hammond!" shouted Horatio Bilby. "I'll get you yet, and don't you forget it." "To get me, as you call it, you will have to have both right and might on your side, Bilby.
Bilby grew even redder in the face than nature seemed to have intended him to be. And his little greenish-gray eyes sparkled angrily. "You'll get into trouble, old man," he threatened. "Don't you let that bother you none," rejoined the miller. "I've had so much trouble in my life that I'm sort of used to it, as you might say.
The figure beside Bilby on the seat had been set upright again. Now the girl saw that it was nothing but a figure. It was no girl at all! "What under the sun, Ruth " But Ruth was not in hearing. She had dashed into the bushes and to the spot where she had previously seen the roadster belonging to Horatio Bilby parked. The bushes were trampled all about.
"He has gone to confer with the lawyers and see if they can get the court to vacate the injunction issued against our use of Wonota. Bilby and the sheriff came again. They had a warrant this time. It called for the production of Wonota. Luckily you had her off the island at the time. They searched every nook and cranny, and meanwhile Totantora got away. They wanted him too."
I don't care if you are the King of the Yaps," said Willie, the boatman. "I have my orders. This is private property. Stay where you are right where you are, mind! till I send for the boss." "You send for them two Injuns that is who our business is with," put in Bilby. "That Totantora and Wonota. I want to see them not that Hammond."
On their way back to the Red Mill she did explain to Helen, however, that she intended to take the two Indians to Cheslow and get a train for Albany that evening. "I will fool Bilby and whoever is aiding him. We will get away." "If you go to-night, so do I!" exclaimed her chum. "You can't lose me, Ruth Fielding.
