Now, as it happened, Ham Spink and his cronies were very anxious to take some game home, but had nothing but one rabbit and a little squirrel. They gazed longingly at the plump game Shep exhibited. "Let us take them," whispered Dick Bush. "Nobody will know how we got them." At this Ham Spink's eyes brightened. He was not above telling an untruth when he felt like it.
They forgot how tired they were, and pushed forward at a faster gait than ever before. "Won't we surprise them when we come back with such game!" said Shep. "I think so, Shep. They didn't really think we'd get anything," answered Whopper. On and on went the boys, the trail of the deer becoming plainer at every step.
Then said Hopeful to the Shepherds, I perceive that these had on them, even every one, a shew of Pilgrimage, as we have now; had they not? Shep. Yes, and held it a long time too. Hope. How far might they go on Pilgrimage in their day, since they notwithstanding were thus miserably cast away? Shep. Some further, and some not so far as these Mountains.
"It will be our last chance before going to the mountains, and the water is just right." "Second the motion!" returned Snap. "So say we all of us!" sang out Whopper. "I've been dying for a swim for the last ten years!" "Dying again! Poor boy!" sighed Shep. "Now, if you'll only live " He got no further, for, coming up behind him, Whopper pulled him over on the grass.
"We must make it large enough!" cried Shep, and then all went to work with vigor, pulling back such rocks as they could move and digging at the dirt with their bare hands. They had to make a regular tunnel ten or more feet long and it took them over an hour to do it.
It was a little, little girl. ... Betsy could see her now ... stumbling along and crying as though her heart would break. Why, it was little Molly, her own particular charge at school, whose reading lesson she heard every day. Betsy and Shep ran to meet her. "What's the matter, Molly? What's the matter?" Betsy knelt down and put her arms around the weeping child. "Did you fall down?
The small youth had set his heart on getting a bear before it should be time to return home. On the day following, Shep and Giant went out after nuts and were gone the best part of the day. When they returned to the camp they were both excited and wanted to see Snap without delay. "What's it all about?" asked the leader of the gun club.
They ranged along the table with a great deal of noise, boots thumping, squeaking, knives and forks rattling, voices bellowing out. "Now hold on, Steve! Can't have yeh so near that chickun!" "Move along, Shep! I want to be next to the kitchen door! I won't get nothin' with you on that side o' me." "Oh, that's too thin! I see what you're-" "No, I won't need any sugar, if you just smile into it."
"I see what it means !" cried Ham Spink, in a great rage. "While we were at the other camp those fellows came here and fixed things up as you see!" All unconscious of what was taking place during their absence, Snap and his chums went on their way, in the direction in which Shep had spotted the deer.
There goes his hat in the snow too! Who threw at him?" "I didn't," answered Giant, promptly. "Neither did I," came from Snap. "Nor I," added Shep. The saw mill owner was flat on his back, his silk hat on one side of him and a package of books and papers on the other. "Maybe he slipped on some ice," suggested Snap.
