After we spent the summer we went back to Trout Lake after scouting around a few days I heard that a very excellent Mink Trapper was in town. I soon located him and we chummed up and planned to go to Red Lake Minnesota. This trapper was no other than the far famed Joe Whitecup.
But Herter industriously chummed with him, and not for nothing. To Herter was due the 'discovery' of the inventor; and as he boasted experience in flying, he asked the privilege of being Hupfer's companion on the trial trip. "The success of this trip would depend even more on the machine's worth as a bomber than on her speed and climbing qualities.
These two had chummed from the hour they met on the steamer that carried them through the Golden Gate of the Pacific till well, till the end of my story. The Colonel was a big tanned fellow, nearly forty eldest of the party whom the others used to guy discreetly, because you couldn't mention a place anywhere on the known globe, except the far north, which he had not personally inspected.
"What sort of fellers were his companions?" asked Captain Elisha. "You mean his friends in society, or his companions downtown in Wall Street?" "The Wall Street ones. I guess I can find out something about the society ones. Anyhow, I can try. These Wall Streeters that 'Bije chummed with a quiet lot, was they?" Sylvester hesitated. "Why why not particularly so," he admitted.
"Well, I said I'd come, didn't I? And I waited," she reminded him. "Yes, and then I saw you talking to that idiotic fellow in a high collar, and I thought, 'Oh, everything be damned! So I chummed up to the pock-marked chap. He was glad enough to have me! Wants me to play poker." He buried his face, and she could scarcely hear his words. "Oh, God," he muttered, "you can see how it is!
"One wants," he said, pitching himself as he supposed in my key, "to put constructive ideas into our readers, but they are narrow, you know, very narrow. Very." He made his moustache and lips express judicious regret. "One has to consider them carefully, one has to respect their attitudes. One dare not go too far with them. One has to feel one's way." He chummed and the moustache bristled.
We strings out for more'n a block. You'd think New Yorkers were so used to parades by this time that you couldn't get 'em stretchin' their necks for anything less'n a regiment of hand-picked heroes. They've seen the French Blue Devils at close range, gawped at the Belgians, and chummed with the Anzacs. But, say, this spool-pushin' stunt was a new one on 'em. Folks just lined the curb and stared.
I'd thought of that very thing; indeed, I've practically engaged a barge. My friend and I, who were to have chummed together, if he hadn't been called away oh, you know, that was a plan before my aunt promised to come, quite another idea. But what I mean to say is, I got an idea for hiring a barge, and having it towed by the motor-boat.
This was mail-day for America, she explained, and begged the young men to excuse her finishing an important letter to an American journalist, with whom she had once "chummed up" on a trip to Italy. "One never knows when these people may be of use to one," she was accustomed to say. Having addressed and stamped the envelope, and tossed it to the others, she rose and gave a hand to each.
"Number 30, West." "She's chummed with Miss Rathmore, then," said the older girl, quickly. "Yes. I must break up that clique. Put her with Miss Rathmore. And do see that the child has some dinner; she must be hungry," said the Madame, laughing again. Then she once more shook Nancy's hand. "Go with Corinne, dear. If you want to know anything, ask her.
