During the afternoon of the 8th the wagon-train and howitzer had been brought down to within five miles of the Indian camp, parked, and fortified by Hugh Kirkendall, the citizen wagonmaster in charge, aided by the few men who had been left with him as train guard. An amusing incident occurred that night, and yet one that came near costing Kirkendall his life.
"Pull a little on your left. I can just make out the shed. There isn't, yes there is, there's just one light in the town." "That's Algernon Kirkendall studying his algebra," said Nick. "It's just in line with the shed. Row straight for the light and we'll hit the shore just right. I'll lift this seat and steer with it. Crinkums, it's dark on the water, isn't it?"
So the algebra was of some use in the world after all; Algernon Kirkendall was a scout without knowing it. "S.N. thinks more of that new car than he does of the troop," said Fido. "Sure, the car don't give him as much trouble," said Nick. "We're a Hunkajunk troop and Safety First's troop is a Ford troop; it's small but it makes a lot of noise. If I ever start a troop it will be air-cooled.
