Anyhow, the wrong one came, or the right one brought the wrong dispatches, and Lieutenant Rowe wouldn't stand for it, and there was a conference, and then the brown men came in and we were geezled. Looked like a raid on a pool room in little old New York!" "But this false messenger the wrong man, or the right man with the wrong instructions was captured also?"
The story was soon told, in condensed form, and then Ned asked: "That was Lieutenant Rowe who was captured?" "Sure! They got into our hut and geezled us good. I shall not be able to straighten out my arms for a month." "Your hands must have been free when you left those signs in the grass," said the patrol leader.
More shots were fired, but the boys were soon out of range. A flush of pink was showing in the sky now, and the sun would be up in half an hour. Jimmie looked longingly toward the camp, and Ned turned his footsteps that way. "Speaking of quitters," Jimmie said, as they moved along, "the two men who geezled me take the bun!
"First," Frank observed, "I'd like to know where he is going so fast." "He may go so fast that he'll get to friends before we harness him!" warned Jimmie. "Then we couldn't get him at all, but might, instead, get geezled ourselves." "There seems to be a little sense left in that head of yours," Frank laughed, "even if your friends do think it is solid bone!
"And you say he went back down the mountain to see who was signaling down there?" "That is what he said when he went away." "What did he say about coming back?" "Of course he'll come back," declared Jimmie. "He's needed here. Since his departure the boy he left here with me has been geezled by some one. I left him alone just a minute, and when I returned he wasn't here.
We rescued our chums first, and then when the outlaws heard your party advancing they scrambled up the old shaft and took to their heels supposing, of course, that we had lost no time in getting out of the mine." "And you geezled them all?" asked Sandy. "The whole three!" replied Will.
That's what we are here for!" The boys thus encouraging each other crawled deeper into the thicket and lay down. They were more than tired, worse than hungry, but they never thought of sleep, or of leaving their post of observation. The afternoon passed slowly, the boys taking snapshots now and then. "The boys will be thinking we've been geezled!" Jack said. "I wish they knew where to find us.
In a short time he had come upon signs in stones left by Shaw and Fenton, and had followed them to the place of meeting. "What's the matter with the secret service men?" asked Shaw. "Aw, they're jealous of Nestor!" Jimmie put in. "I reckon they wouldn't much care if Nestor had been geezled instead of Fremont." "They did all they were ordered to do," Nestor replied.
"It won't do no good to take us there after that cheap skate has geezled the boat," Jimmie cut in. "And you are Jimmie," the chief went on. "I saw your picture, too. Well, this is quite a surprise for me," the chief added. "You'll get a greater surprise if you let that murderer get off with the Sea Lion," Jimmie remarked.
"The robbers certainly were in there not very long ago. We heard the scuffle when they geezled Jimmie." "Who fired that shot?" asked Mr. Buck. "Uncle Stephen did," replied Elmer. "I saw the flash spring out from the spot where he stood!" "Well, what do you know about that?" exclaimed Sandy. "The old chap is actually making his bluff good! He's getting into Tunnel Six single handed and alone!
