Had the Eagle not been so heavily laden it might have escaped, for Tom's craft was a speedy one. But this time it had to give the palm to Mr. Grant Halling's. Faster and faster in pursuit flew the Star, as the new craft was called. Faster and faster, until at last, coming directly over the Eagle, Mr. Halling sent his craft down in such a manner as to "blanket" the other.
As he feared, he found several things the matter with it, in addition to the motor trouble which had been the cause for Mr. Halling's call on the young inventor. "Can she be fixed?" asked the birdman, who explained that, as yet, he was only an amateur in the practice of flying. "Oh, yes, we can fix her up for you," said Tom. "But it will take several days. You'll have to leave it here."
