"Wall, chaw some quick, and chaw it good. I need it." Chick's jaws worked overtime. Presently he handed a small wad of glutinous gum to his leader. "Na-ow then," announced Bud, dismounting, "I'm goin' ter show you a hurry up repair job." He squatted, cow-boy fashion, in front of the radiator, and with deft fingers pressed the gum into the leak.
He withdrew the cloth. The body was Chick's. Nick's first glance at the body of Chick took a weight like a mountain of lead off his heart. Chick was bound and gagged. This was enough to make Nick certain that no serious harm had come to him, but he was instantly made aware of it in another way. Cautiously Chick lifted an eyelid.
