Shovel in hand old Gettysburg discovered the men with an instrument who trekked along the outside edge of the claim. Chain-man, rod-man, and Lawrence with his shining theodolite, set on its three slender legs, they were silhouetted sharply against the evening sky. Their movements and their presence here were beyond the partners' comprehension.
It was Gettysburg who climbed up the slope, and anchored himself in their path. "What you doin'?" he said to the rod-man presently, when that tired individual approached and continued on his way. "What does it look like playing checkers?" said the man. "Can't the Government do nuthin' run no county line ner nuthin' without everybody sittin' up to notice?"
"Well, I'll organize regular survey groups compass-man, axe-man, rod-man, chain-men and let them run lines; and I'll make them estimate timber, and make a sketch map or so. It's all practical." "I should think so!" cried Bob. "I wonder if I could pass it myself." He laughed. "I should hate to tackle tying those things on that horse even after seeing those prospectors do it!"
