Indeed, this was the first time that she had ever tried. It was as if her feet were like flat-irons.

"Let’s go," Rip said, and as he rose he heard Koa’s voice. The sergeant-major said, "Kemp, kneel on their right side. Trudeau and I will hit them from the left and tumble them over you.

"We’ll soon know," Rip replied grimly.

String ’em up!” shouted Red. Just then the solemn hoot of a distant owl was heard. One of the men holding the rope dropped it, and shivered from head to foot. “Boys,” he whispered, “let’s don’t do it. That’s a note of warning.
