"Warriors," said Hole-in-his-Face, "you have heard. What have you to say?" "So mote it be," came solemnly from one. "Yah! yah! yah!" yelled the others. "That settles it, as the sugar remarked to the egg dropped into the coffee. Prepare the torture stakes."
"Fellow warriors," continued Hole-in-his-Face, without noticing the interruption, "I am heap much proud to be with you on this momentous occasion." "Yah! yah! yah!" yelled the savages. "And now," the chief went on, "if you will proceed to squat on your haunches I will orate a trifle."
"Ugh!" grunted Hole-in-his-Face. "This paleface talks heap much. Remove his outer garments, so the fire may reach his flesh without delay." Then Browning was held and his clothes were stripped off till he stood in his under garments, barefooted, bareheaded, and still defiant. "Oh, say!" he muttered, "won't there be an awful hour of reckoning! Merriwell will regret the day he came to Yale!"
The savages arose, and one of them said: "Fellow warriors, the mighty chief Fale-in-his-Hoce I mean Hole-in-his-Face has arrived." Then a wild yell of greeting went up to the twinkling stars, and every savage brandished a tomahawk, scalping knife, or some other kind of weapon.
At this Hole-in-his-Face laughed heartily, and Browning cried: "Oh, I know you, Merriwell! You can't fool me, though you have got the best makeup of them all." When everything was ready, one of the savages actually touched a match to the various piles of brush about the feet of the unfortunate sophomores.
"Brothers," said Hole-in-his-Face, "I see that I am welcome in your midst, as any up-to-date country newspaper reporter would say. You have received me with great éclat excuse my French; I was educated abroad in New Jersey." "Go back to Princeton!" cried one of the captives.
