Sam said he had "gone ten mile and never got a sight of that blamed river." Guy swore they had gone forty miles, and didn't believe there was any such river. "What kind o' country did you see?" "Nothin' but burned land and rocks." "H-m, you went too far west was runnin' parallel with Beaver River." "Now, Blackhawk, give an account of yourself to Little Beaver," said Woodpecker.
Making his way from square to square of the big rope hairnet that served as guidelines on the outer surface of the big wheel, Mike Blackhawk completed his inspection of the gold-plated plastic hull, with its alternate dark and shiny squares.
If your observatories can give us any advice, please message at once. End." Then the captain depressed his intercom switch to the morgue. "Dr. Chi. Please report to the bridge. Repeat. Dr. Chi Tung. Please report to the bridge at once." His own intercom hummed, and a voice came on. "Dr. Chi Tung is not in the morgue. He left with Mr. Blackhawk some time ago."
Guy, however, scored a glorious triumph over Char-less and secured his scalp at the moment of victory. Now Little Beaver sent a challenge to Blackhawk. It was scornfully accepted. Again the Boiler Chief was victor and won another scalp, while Little Beaver got a black eye and a bad licking, but the enemy retired.

Every one was much surprised at the challenge, but much more so when, to the joy of his tribe, Little Beaver won a brilliant victory.
And picking up the Security radio from the intercom bench, he turned it on and spoke into it. "Elbertson, this is Mike Blackhawk. You now have twenty minutes to surrender," and he cut off. Mike turned to Tombu. "Get me some plastic wrapping material. Preferably a plastic bag. I've got to make this stuff waterproof."
