He had pounced down upon the ax, which happened to be lying close by, and this he flourished around his head as he started to meet the figure that was scrambling up the little bank above the beach. "Whoo, somethin' jumped at me!" replied the startled boy, panting for breath; for he had fallen at least twice, in his haste to rejoin his campmates near the blazing fire.

Then the boys burst out into a roar, and Smithy became aware that he had been an object of great interest to his campmates for ten minutes.
Then, again, he had stuffed his head so very full of different recipes that the chances were poor Bandy-legs must get the formulas mixed, which would result in some mighty queer messes to be tried upon his patient campmates. After the meal was finished those who were to do the grand wading act of the afternoon got ready to go forth.

Right now that terrible beast may be making ready to jump on us." As the short-legged boy spoke he made a flying leap in the direction of the tent that had been erected.
