From the stars to the room, from the room to the stars, her glance roved uneasily. Had she fallen upon an adventure? Was Dennison's theory correct regarding the beads? She rose and went to the dresser, inspecting the beads carefully. Positively glass! That Anthony Cleigh should be seeking a string of glass beads seemed arrant nonsense.
He picked the several things up as he mentioned them, for they had been lying on a little shelf, where Frank himself had placed them days before. Watching Mr. Dennison's face, Frank saw it turn white as the eyes of the old man were focussed on that poor little remnant of what had once been a baby's shoe.
Dennison's No. 2 sealing wax may be melted in the flame of a candle and, while still blazing, dropped upon the tongue without causing a burn, as the moisture of the tongue instantly cools it. Care must be used, however, that none touches the hands or lips. It can be chewed, and apparently swallowed, but removed in the handkerchief while wiping the lips.
Dennison's nephew, "I got the notion that Gilbert would like to stay over here a spell with us, and enjoy some of our doings." "He did say he was fond of camping, and for all we know he may have been around some up in Michigan or Wisconsin," suggested Jerry. "Well," added Bluff, a little boastfully, "when it comes to experiences I reckon the Outdoor Chums don't have to occupy a back seat!
Will discovered a number of remarkable sights that appealed to his artistic instinct, so that Frank had to wait until he had focussed his camera and then pressed the button. Those pictures would always remind them of their lively experiences when on the way back to camp after the second visit to Aaron Dennison's place.
There were a paper and two letters. "Hm-m," began Mr. Clayton, "one for you, Julia, my dear, and by Jove, it's Dennison's letter!" he finished joyfully, thrusting an eager thumb under the flap of the other envelope. Twenty minutes later, with head erect and shoulders squared, the senior member of the firm of Clayton & Company left his home and hurried down the street.
Twice Dick got caught by swings, though he was not sadly troubled. He was lanching in, lightly, all over the less vital parts on his man now. It did Dennison no harm, but the impudence of it stung the big fellow. "Time!" "That's the b.j.-est skeeter I ever saw," grinned Nelson, as he sprayed water over Dennison's biceps. "You quit, Nelse!" "All right. Don't get mad at me.
Sticks and bits of plaster flew everywhere. The crowd receded, panic-stricken. "Good work!" cried the fire marshal. It seemed, indeed, as though the flames were daunted. The two small structures were blazing now. The Parker House, reeling drunkenly, collapsed. Unexpectedly a gust of wind sent fire from the ruins of Dennison's Exchange northward.
It wasn't Cunningham's request it was Dennison's refusal. That syllable, though spoken moderately, was the essence of battle, murder, and sudden death. If they should clash it would mean that Denny how easy it was to call him that! Denny would be locked up and she would be all alone. For the father seemed as aloof and remote as the pole. "You shall not do it!" declared Dennison.
