"If they keeps on lappin' it up the way they's doin' las' night they aint goin' to do much tradin' in anythin' but headaches. Say, what about this here bundle o' phoney hid in a hollow stump? Wade was tellin' me you's up here lookin' after it. Cranston was wonderin' if Weiler'd got a line on it an' mebbe that had somethin' to do with the gang comin' together in this neighborhood. Did you find it?"
Ike squealed on Spotty for another job after they give him the third degree, and when Spotty heard of that it made him sore, as it would anybody. Then when the two bulls who pinched Spotty and Ike tested the diamonds in the cross and found they was phoney as they might have guessed coming from a department store Spotty was fit to be tied, he was so wild! So he up and confessed.
Sure then, come into the reception room on the right. What's that in your grip?" asked the apparent leader of the men. "Just an idea of Van Cleft's," said Shirley, as he followed into the adjoining compartment. "It's a phonograph. Have you received any phoney 'phone calls to-night?

Under the glass he noticed that the little curl on the 'e' of the 'Five' was missing.
In two weeks your patient I'll guarantee it will be acclaimed the hope, the blessing, the greatest man in all the history of humanity! It'll be phoney, of course, but we'll have Marilyn Winters Little Aphrodite herself making passes at him in hopes of a publicity break! It's a natural!" "How'll you do it?" demanded Holden. The moon-jeep turned in its crazy, bumping progress.
And, having had to rise from Earth to Luna, and needing to take an acceleration of a good many gravities, it had necessarily to be reasonably well-built. It had had, in fact, to be an honest job of ship-building in order to put across a phoney promotion. But there were trimmings that could have been spared. The ports opening upon emptiness, for example, were not really practical arrangements.
Fif ty thous and dollars! We calls it 'The Double-Cross an' the Get-Away. The Perfessor has double-crossed our friend an' worthy leader, Red McIvor, an' refuses to say where he has buried the hidden treasure. Instead of fifty thousand good bucks, he hands over a wad o' phoney bills.
