"Nathan," Abe yelled to the shipping clerk, "fetch the broom.
"What fire?" said James. "The fire they burn under the balloons, to make the air hot," said Nathan. "I don't believe they have any fire," said James. Just then Nathan, happening to look around, saw Jonas standing behind them; he had just come out of the house, and was going out to his work. Hearing the boys engaged in this dispute, he stopped to listen. The boys both appealed to Jonas.
