On the seventh of this July the railway watchman, Ivan Semyonovitch Akinfov, going along the line in the morning, found you at the hundred-and-forty-first mile engaged in unscrewing a nut by which the rails are made fast to the sleepers.

Now, pard, for Gawd's sake, what'll I do?" finished Blinky with a groan. "Cowboy, you've done noble," replied Pan in great satisfaction. "Wha-at! Say, Pan, you look queer this mawnin'. Sort of shiny eyed an' light-footed. You don't look drunk or loco. So what ails you?" "Blink, I'm as crazy as you," responded Pan, almost hugging his friend. "But don't worry another minute.
