Henry is a true cadet of the breed, Buckwheat will follow Tom Spink's lead, and Tom Spink, a proper Anglo-Saxon peasant, will lead Buckwheat all the better by virtue of the punching. Two days have passed, and two noteworthy things have happened. The men seem to be nearing the end of their mysterious food supply, and we have had our first truce.
Davy Spink's attention having been attracted, he became subject to similar alterations of visage. "Hallo!" cried the captain, while the whole crew burst into a laugh, "you must have given them poison. Have you a stomach-pump, doctor?" he said, turning hastily to Ruby. "No, nothing but a penknife and a tobacco-stopper. If they're of any use to you "
"But I can be back here in a quarter of an hour." "Where shall we go?" asked Shep Reed. "I was thinking of going up to Lane's Cove," answered Snap Dodge. "Lane's Cove!" cried the smallest youth of the crowd. "Yes. Isn't that a nice place?" "Sure it is, but don't you know that Ham Spink's father has bought all the land around there?" "What of that, Giant?"
Spink put the cup to his lips, and a look of deep surprise overspread his rugged countenance as he sipped the contents. The captain nodded. Spink's look of surprise changed into a confidential smile; he also nodded, winked, and drained the cup to the bottom.
"I am not afraid of you." "Well, you had better be." "What do you mean by that?" demanded Snap. He fancied there might be some hidden meaning to Ham Spink's words. "Oh, you'll find out one of these days," came from Carl, significantly. "If you try any of your underhanded tricks you'll get the worst of it just as you did up to the camp," answered Snap, and went on his way.
He was just rounding one of the points of the cove, and now he saw somebody running toward the point at top speed. "I say, who are you?" continued the party on shore, and now Snap recognized Ham Spink's voice. "None of your business!" answered Snap gruffly and in as heavy a tone as he could command. "You are running away with our boats!" continued Ham, in consternation. "Hi, fellows, come here!
"I read in the paper that a man in Toledo made thirty thousand dollars out of an invention. He got it up in less than a day. He just thought of it. It's a new kind of way for sealing fruit cans," a man in the crowd before Birdie Spink's drug store absent-mindedly observed. Inside the drug store by the empty stove, Judge Hanby talked persistently of the time when factories would come.
Spink put the cup to his lips, and a look of deep surprise overspread his rugged countenance as he sipped the contents. The captain nodded. Spink's look of surprise changed into a confidential smile; he also nodded, winked, and drained the cup to the bottom.
When he had concluded, Captain Ogilvy heaved a sigh so deep that it might have been almost considered a groan, then he sat down on his armchair, and, pointing to the chair from which the widow had recently risen, said, "Sit down, lad." As he advanced to comply, Spink's eyes for the first time fell on the case of jewels. He started, paused, and looked with a troubled air at the captain.
"My folks told me to beware of ghosts," said Snap with a grin. "We needn't beware if the ghost turns out to be like that other," answered Giant. "My folks told me to keep out of trouble especially with Ham Spink's crowd," said Whopper. "Say, fellows, I reckon you have forgotten something," said Shep. "Forgotten something?" queried Whopper. "Exactly." "What?"
