Carey and Peter to the Yellow House himself, while the rest followed in the depot carryall, with a trail of trunks and packages following on behind in an express wagon. It was a very early season, the roads were free from mud, the trees were budding, and the young grass showed green on all the sunny slopes.
She pursued this thread of thought no further. Janice wondered then and she wondered afterward if this unexplained anxiety connected Hopewell Drugg with the dances at the Lake View Inn. Could it be possible that Janice Day had alighted from Walky Dexter's old carryall at the little grocery store for still another purpose? It was waning afternoon, yet she did not immediately make her way homeward.
Fact is, I I well, I come down to-day a-purpose to ask you somethin'. I know it's a queer place to ask it, and and I s'pose it's kind of sudden, but will will you Breakers! by mighty!" The carryall had suddenly begun to rock, and there were streaks of foam about it. Now, it gave a most alarming heave, grounded, swung clear, and tipped yet more. "We're capsizin'," yelled Perez.
It was a frantic harnessing, but it was done in a hurry, and the ramshackle old carryall, dusty and cobwebbed, was dragged out of the barn, and Horace Greeley, the horse, was backed into the shafts. As they drove out of the yard the flames were roaring through the roof of the henhouse, and the lath fence surrounding it was beginning to blaze.
She was still in a half dream when the blue of a lake glimmered beyond the far aisles and the carryall drew up with a flourish before three tents set in the pines on the water's edge. Charlie and Kent had made their preparations well and they displayed them proudly. They had rented the three old A tents from the agent, as well as the seven canvas cots, the dishes and the cooking utensils.
If we were land-hunters, we might ponder long over the town of Gratis, unless we thought Bonus promised more. A brisk man would hardly choose Nodaway for his home, nor a haymaker the town of Rain. There is a Crockery, a Carryall, and a Turkey-Foot, which last, like the broomstick in Goethe's ballad, is chopped in two, only to reappear as a double nuisance, as Upper and Lower Turkey-Foot.
Holiday, in explaining the plan, "and so there will not be quite room for us all in the carryall. Besides, we shall want Jonas's help, probably, in the expedition, and then the wagon will be a good thing to bring back our treasures in." "O father," said Rollo, "we shall not get more than a carryall full."
Then, without further delay, they climbed into the carryall, the two women at the back, on seats which made them jump up and down as the vehicle went jolting along the road, and the two men in front on the front seat. Nobody spoke.
But although he struggled with it for several moments it refused stubbornly to have anything to do with the keyhole. "There's a side door around there," advised the boy from the carryall. "Maybe it's the key to it." "Maybe it is the key to it," responded Wade, wiping the perspiration from his forehead.
There was an ancient carryall in the barn, and on the Saturday previous little John-Ed was caught and made to clean this vehicle, rub up the green-molded harness, and give the Queen of Sheba more than "a lick and a promise" with the currycomb and brush. At ten o'clock on Sunday morning Sheila herself backed the gray mare out of her stable and harnessed her into the shafts of the carryall.
