"Most of the passengers remained in the trains," said the station agent.
The boys had decided to go to the lake by a roundabout way, covering a distance of about forty miles. They left at a little after ten o'clock, calculating to get to the lake in time for lunch.

Dave and Phil had been there for four days, and Roger and his parents had done all in their power to make the visitors feel at home.
