"Then," continued Rand, "we agree to accept the challenge of the Highpoints. How's this for a reply?" Time and place to be agreed upon." "In my opinion," said Donald, "you should say 'rowing match' as being more specific."

"Round by Robin Hood's barn, I guess; but I came out on the side of the cliff, and the Highpoints fortunately found me." "But how did you get out of the tree?" asked the colonel. "We couldn't find any trail." "Did you know I was up a tree? Well, I climbed into the next tree," was the reply. "Ah!" said the colonel, "that accounts for it. I never thought of that."
