Don thrust it in his pocket and was off. Shading his eyes, Bobbie watched wheel and rider fly down the road. A hand touched his shoulder. "What's Don rushing off for?" Ted asked. Bobbie told about Tim's journey to Danger Mountain. Ted's eyes snapped. "Think Don'll catch him?" he asked. "Sure he will." "I hope," said the captain, "I hope he gives him a beating to remember."
Duncan Polite'll be feelin' terrible, if he hears it." "Mebby Don'll straighten them up when he comes," suggested Flora, who secretly admired the handsome young student. "Indeed," broke in her mother, busy with the tea-cups, "I'm just afraid Donald's not much better. He seemed to be a steady boy once, but I guess he's got his head turned in the city.
I kin afford to spend all my time lookin' fur him, kase I was down to the landin' to-day, an' I seed a notice stuck up thar sayin' that Don'll give ten dollars fur him an' ax no questions. What's the matter of you?" demanded Dan, as David turned quickly about and walked toward the door. "Hain't goin' off mad, be you?" "I don't know what to make of you, Dan," replied David.
"An' there's Don Neil; he's another that's been puttin' on airs, but I'll bet he'll quit now; mind you, Coonie, the minister went home with Jessie last night."

I was goin' to hide him in the woods somewhar, but pap kin take keer on him as well as not. Don'll pay a dollar or two to get him back, an' I'll give the ole man half.
"Oh, while I have company Ajax and Don'll have to sleep in the shed or lean-to outside," remarked the master of the dogs. "Of course, when I'm here all by myself they stay indoors with me. And I tell you, lads, they make a fellow feel less lonely in the long winter days and nights. Dogs are men's best friends that is, the right kind of dogs. They become greatly attached to you, too."
"Stay here," replied Dan, "an' if they come back to pester you, growl 'em off 'n the island like you done this time." "An' git a bullet into me fur my pains?" returned his father. "No, sar. Don'll be up here agin in the mornin', sartin, an' he'll have his rifle with him, too; but I won't be here to stand afore it, kase I've seed him shoot too ofter.
