She relented, and for the first time in the evening her rare laugh sounded softly from between her white, even teeth. "You see," she said, addressing him, "I can't help being angry with Mr. Townsend. I think I'm a little afraid of him. I'm a coward in some ways. You're different.
He felt that he could not face Townsend Ripley after breaking the promise he had made him not to go in swimming. Poor Keekie Joe, his eyes were so full of mud that he could not see the glory of that broken promise! "Yez cin all go ter school," he said. Then, with as much fear and stealth as if he were running away from the police he crept into the water again and started for shore.
The trail at last took an abrupt turn away from the cross-marked mountain, and they came to another halt. "This must be where they told us to turn off through the woods and down the slope, I think," said Townsend. "Doesn't it seem so to you, Bill?"

"As they haven't done it yet, they won't do it now," said Somers. "M'Carthy is not without sense, and Townsend, queer and intolerant as he is, has good feeling.
