"That sounds to me something like what Professor Gray calls a paradox," laughed Bill. "I don't suppose you're going to peach on Thad," Gus offered. "No; but wouldn't I like to?

"I don't doubt it," rejoined Rob, smiling the Western enthusiasm. "By cracky, I'll do it," went on Harry Harkness, "I'll make it a mounted patrol and if we don't get old 'Silver Tip' then, besides all the other sport we'll have, call me a coyote."

"Well, here you are, kiddo," said Roy, "so you see it's real enough."
