It was a hope that died at the moment of its birth, however, for he was struck by a falling timber on the head. When, an hour later, he was found in an eddy of the river by the shore, he was dead, and his finders could only compose his limbs decently. As soon as Carnac Grier heard the news, he sent a note to his mother telling her all he knew.
That is never stale, and there are depths still unexplored, heights still unattained, warm rivers of love, cold streams of hatred, and vast plains where strange motives grow. These are our business. We have not to deal so much with the finding of the Simiacine as with the finders, and of these the chief at this time was Jack Meredith.
Supposing 50,000 of these employed as gold finders, and to pay one ounce each annually, worth L. 4 the ounce, this would produce L. 200,000.
I call it a plain case." Stevens. "So I told them." Robinson. "Exactly! Which do you think ought to have it?" Stevens. "Why, I told them we have a proverb 'Losers, seekers finders, keepers." Robinson. "Of course; and which was the finder?" Stevens. "Oh! of course this one that hum! Well, to be sure he only said 'ah! he did not point. Then perhaps but on the other hand hum!" Robinson.
There, from a drift protruded something black a boot; and on his back, deep buried, lay Goodfellow. Near at hand they found MacGeorge, in an easy attitude, as if quietly sleeping, on his face a smile "a kind o' a pleasure," the finders called it such a smile, perhaps, as the face of the "good and faithful servant" may wear when he entereth into the joy of his Lord.

This, to pray for dead folks, this is not found, for it was never lost. How can that be found that was not lost? O subtle finders, that can find things, if God will, ere they be lost!
"To heap on your head," he laughed, "and scorch your uncharitable soul!" "My poor lost soul," she murmured. "Then take notice that, if finders are keepers, I'm heading a search party." She looked gaily up at him, for it was hard to remember that she was angry; but quickly her face sobered. "I forgot, and I must not forget, that you've mortally offended me."
He swung directly over the small prone object and there was a second puff of smoke. "They've got range finders on us from the Shed," he called across the two-foot space separating him from Joe. "This marks the spot. Now we'll see if there's anything to the hot part of that tip." He reached over behind his seat and brought out a stubby pole like a fishpole with a very large reel.
"Well, it's a very strange and romantic affair," remarked Angelina Bott, a sentimental sort of girl, to her chum, Alice Haven. "It would make quite a story." "For the detectives yes," assented Alice. Then, speaking so loudly that Cora could not help but hear, she added: "I guess hiders make the best finders, after all." Cora's face turned red.
