Dora's letter to Dick was an especially tender epistle, and he read it several times in secret. He was glad that the misunderstanding between them was being cleared away. He wished she might be near, so that he could go and see her. "I'd take a run to Cedarville if it wasn't so far," he told his brothers. "I'd go along," answered Tom, and Sam said the same.
In heaven's name, then, let the traffic cease! To this end, I offer these resolutions: "Be it resolved by the inhabitants of Cedarville, That from this day henceforth, no more intoxicating drink shall be sold within the limits of the corporation.
"I saw you come in here a few minutes ago and I followed, because I want to speak to you," said Andy, shoving to the front and eyeing the fellow closely. "What do you wish to speak about?" "Haven't I met you before?" At these words the man started, but quickly recovered. "I don't think so," he answered slowly, looking Andy straight in the eyes. "You see, I am a stranger in Cedarville."
He hasn't spoken to me since the fight." After the holidays came some fine skating on the lake, and also some iceboating. Fred Century had had a new iceboat built at Cedarville. It was called the Skimmer, and he was exceedingly proud of the craft. "You must come out with me," he said to Jack, Pepper and Andy, one Saturday afternoon. "The ice is as smooth as glass, and the wind is just right."
Why, they kicked and trampled upon him, as if he had been a wild beast! I never saw such a pack of blood-thirsty devils in my life!" "So much for rum," said I.

It was agreed that the youth should meet the physician at half-past twelve, and leaving his horse in the latter's stable, Dick walked down the main street of Cedarville.
I shan't take anybody along that can't show a good report." "By jinks! we'll have to be on our good behavior," observed Tom, after he had read his father's letter. "That's so," responded Sam. "Father means to have us study, or else we must stay here during the spring term." As anticipated, Alexander Pop reached Cedarville Tuesday afternoon.

An agent of a Lake Superior mine visited our village and represented the mine in so favorable a light that many of my neighbors bought shares, fully expecting to double their money in a year.
Both boys started and turned around, to find themselves confronted by Lemuel Husty, the man Dick had seen in company with Baxter at Cedarville. "Hullo, who are you?" asked Tom, as quickly as he could recover from his surprise. "If you want to know real bad, youngster, my name is Lemuel Husty." "I don't know you." "But I know you leas'wise I know of you," went on Husty, with a frown.
