In a moment Ted heard the chug of the motor car, then the grating of the tires on the earth as it started away.
Another leap and he was hock deep in the surf. Still another, and he split a roller with his white nose. With a dull chug, a resonant thump, and an impetuous splash the dory entered its accustomed element, lifting some three gallons of salt water neatly over the bows. Lank ducked. The unsuspecting Stashia did not, and the flying brine struck fairly under her ample chin. "Ug-g-g-gh! Oh! Oh!
With a scarred face I begin to run for the beach so as to escape in my canoe, when I catch sight of a lobster right next to the Golondrina; but what a lobster I He must have been as big as a bear; he was black, and shiny, and went chug, chug, chug, like an automobile.

The sixshooter relinquished by his nerveless fingers remained on top of the bar between the whiskey glasses. Racey stared speculatively at the long man and the short man. They in turn regarded him with something like respect.
And then the cheery "chug" of the motors sounded, for the boys purposely made all the noise they could, under the impression that it might seem to add to the appearance of a hasty flight.
