"And I'd like to do something, if I could, for Mr. Boomer himself, just as man to man," said Tomlinson. "All right," said Beatem, and he could hardly keep his face straight.

The heart of the poor girl almost stopped beating as she saw Pawnee Brown face about, ready to defend both her and himself from any enemy who might appear to help Yellow Elk. Urged by the great scout, she set off on a hasty run for the mouth of the cave.
