But Sandy was so excited he kept slapping the straps up and down on poor Bill, which to the horse, of course, meant to go faster. "He'll drive in the brook," called Bert in alarm also rushing after the runaway. "Whoa, Bill! whoa, Bill!" called everybody, the children from the camp having now joined in following the wagon. The brook was directly in front of Sandy. "Quick, Harry!" yelled Bert.
I'll take one of the teams " "You stay with him," jerked out Ann. "I can ride." "Ride? Them ain't ridin' hosses, Miss," declared Old Dolliver. "If a horse has got four legs he can be ridden," declared the girl from the ranch, succinctly. "Take the off one on my team, then " "That old plug? I guess not!" exclaimed Ann, and was off.

"For heaven's sake," exclaimed the lightkeeper's helper, running to meet the vehicle, "what is the matter?" The boy grinned more expansively than ever. "Whoa!" he shouted, to the horse he was driving. The animal stopped in his tracks, evidently glad of the opportunity. Another howl burst from the covered depths of the wagon.

He moved nearer to them, and began to stroke their manes and clap their necks, to which they responded by rubbing their faces against him and cuddling an affectionate return for the sympathy in his voice.
She peered out around the side of the carry-all and scrutinized the landscape. "Hold on! No, yes it is, too! Whoa! Whoa! The'e's a man in that hay-field, now!" She laid hold of the reins and pulled the horse to a stand. Mr. Lander looked round over his shoulder at her. "Hadn't you betta wait till you get within half a mile of the man?" "Well, I want you should stop when you do git to him.
