We kind of let him see us leave work in the mine and sneak into the old stope.

Macartney thought he'd scared us, and we'd lit for Caraquet; but we lit back again after dark. We crawled in here by our back entrance you haven't seen yet, and here we've been ever since!
Come on, Stretton; I bet we'll be top-sides with Macartney-Hutton yet!" "He's out, looking for me " but Paulette's sentence broke in a gasp. "Why, it's Collins!" She stared incredulously in the candlelight. "Just that," imperturbably. "Stretton can tell you all about me presently, Miss Paulette. For now I imagine you'd sooner see a fire and something to eat.
