The first Infant has left the Golden Goblet at the fountain you did leave it there; didn't you, you 'fraid-cat?" she demanded sharply, of Helen. Helen bobbed her head and sobbed. "Then," said the leader of the hazing party, "you go and bring it here." Ruth stared at her in surprise. She did not move. "Take out her gag. Lead her to the door.
"Oh, come out of here this moment!" she exclaimed. "I will not stay in this house another instant. I told you it was dangerous!" and she dragged her friend, with the strength of terror to the side door. Outside, as the chill mist struck her, she breathed a great sigh of relief. "What a little 'fraid-cat you are!" laughed Phyllis. "What in the world were you frightened about?" Leslie shivered.
"Yes, I do I'm no 'fraid-cat I mean to have them pink pajamas, or " "And where do I come in, eh?" exclaimed Growler indignantly. "Oh, you can have the shirts and collars, Matey. Share and share alike, you know. We'll just slip off to the ship, and " "And take us with you," broke in Rudolf. "Do!" "You know you promised to do us a good turn," whispered Ann.
"It is all Elizabeth's imagination," she protested, in a low tone. "I never saw such a little silly for making mountains out of mole-hills. She is such a fraid-cat that she wouldn't look behind her if a fly buzzed. Now you know, Lloyd, that, as particular as I am, I wouldn't think of going anywhere that wasn't proper, any more than your mother would. I'll take the responsibility.
"More than sixty miles, and a bad road, and it is now half-past five," replied the boy. "Oh, my! I hope we'll not be delayed after dark," said his sister. "I never knew you to be such a 'fraid-cat before, Helen," laughed Ruth. "Everything's gone wrong to-day. And those awful men scared me. Let's stop at the hotel at Boisé Landing, if it grows dark. Uncle Ike's is a long way beyond the town, Tom."
"I am a Tabby Catt, am I? I am scrawny and skinny, am I? Well, you're a coward, a good-for-nothing coward, and so is your big brother. He wouldn't dare fight Tom, and you wouldn't dare say such things to me if Tom was anywhere near. You're a bully, an overgrown baby, a 'fraid-cat! Yes, that's what you are! I may be a Tabby Catt, but I'm not a 'fraid-cat.
"I didn't want to but he called me a fraid-cat. And I fell off into the pigpen and my dress got all dirty and the pig runned right over me. My dress was just awful but Davy said if I'd stand under the pump he'd wash it clean, and I did and he pumped water all over me but my dress ain't a bit cleaner and my pretty sash and shoes is all spoiled."
"Come on, Dave!" It was Joel's voice, and Polly pricked up her ears. "'Tisn't going to hurt you. Hoh! you're a 'fraid-cat old 'fraid-cat!" "No, I'm not 'fraid-cat," declared little Davie, trying to speak stoutly; "I'm coming, Joel," and his little rusty shoes pattered unevenly down the rickety board walk. "Jo-el!" called Polly, thinking it quite time now to interfere.

Maybe the belt will break and he get hurt bumping down. Sorry now I left him, he's such a 'fraid-cat. There's the gun again! Guess it's that man after us. Hi! hollo! Here I am! Whoop! Hurrah! Hi! hi! hi!" Tommy's meditations ended in a series of yells as loud as his shrill little voice could make them, and he thought some one answered.
