The lowest branch was seven or eight feet above the ground. Lew raced toward it, gathered himself for a leap and sprang upward. He caught the limb and swung himself up with all possible speed. He was not a second too soon. As Lew's body shot upward, the bear rose on her hind feet, and the vicious swipe of her paw barely missed Lew's body.
Doggone it, I only told her Lew's dead and she can marry you shucks! I thought she'd be glad!"
Lidgerwood's laugh was as hearty as Van Lew's or the collegian's. "Please go on," he teased. Then quoting her: "'And after they had shot up all the peaceable people in the town, they fell to killing each other, and' Don't let me spoil the dramatic conclusion." "You are the dramatic conclusion to that story," retorted Miss Brewster, reproachfully.
His eyes reproachfully trailed off to Poke Drury. The one-legged man made a grimace and shrugged. "I can't drag Lew's folks out, can I?" he demanded. "An' I'd like to see the jasper as would try pryin' Ma loose from the covers right now. It can't be did, Hap." Hap sighed, seeming to agree, and sighing reached out a big hairy hand for the bottle.
"Told you they was all right. William be a keerful driver." Nelton raised his eyes slowly. They lit, with wonder. "Mr. Leighton," he cried, "Master Lewis, are you safe? "Quite safe, Nelton," said Leighton. "Why?" Nelton mutely held out Lew's hat and jerked his head back at the wrecked canopy. "Oh, yes," said Leighton, nodding; "we dropped those. Thank you for picking them up.
In getting up he touched Lew's shoulder with his elbow, and Lew let out a bellow of pain and an oath, and leaned away from him, his right hand up to ward off another hurt. "Pardon me. I forgot your rheumatism," Bud apologized perfunctorily, his face going red at the epithet.
Charley accompanied him part of the way. Then he continued on his patrol. The next time Charley met the forester he received Lew's answer to his letter. Lew had addressed the box, but several of the boys of the Wireless Patrol had helped to pack it. The piece of green pasteboard proved to be from a box in which Henry had gotten shoes by mail.
