I had got several barrels of powder there, and when they came in I told them if they came any further I should blow the place up. That put them in a funk, and they all bolted, and I went to sleep again. That's the whole affair." "Oh!" Charlie said in a disappointed voice, for this seemed rather tame after the thrilling reports he had heard.
They say his mother's serious, and that; but why shouldn't she bet?" continues honest Crackthorpe, puffing his cigar with great energy.
