For into the courtyard, followed by many who gaped and stared in wonderment, six men staggered, men hideously stained and besplashed from head to foot, and foremost came two.
We can pitch it without the aid of tent poles by simply hanging it be ween two trees to which a rope has been stretched. The Hudson Bay tent, trapper's tent, forester's tent, canoe tent, and a dozen others, including an Indian tepee and wigwam, are all good tents for special purposes.
"I'm afraid I thought you had," she admitted, grown happy in an instant. "You see, I had an appointment with a man in West Weston on some work I've been doing for him. After I heard this plan of Doctor Forester's I had only just time to catch a train and get out there.
'Not far from here lives the forester; I will run for him and he will help you. I ran as fast as I could but not to the forester's house. "'Petrik, do not leave me. I am afraid, called Stephen after me, and right after that followed a cry: "'Mother mine!
