"Then I'll have to ask you to hurry away, as Hazelton will have to be attended to and many things done. Talk fast, if you please." Dodge and Bayliss poured out what they knew of the night's business. "And how did you two happen to be there?" inquired Mr. Pollock.
Marian, who was now at Annapolis, caring for the returned prisoners, did not write often, and her letters were prized the more by Katy, who read with a heating heart the kind congratulations upon her recent marriage, sent by Marian Hazelton. "I knew how it would end, even when you were in Georgetown," she wrote, "and I am glad that it is so, praying daily that you may be as happy with Dr.
"Gentlemen, you may as well remove your masks on this hot evening," suggested Jim Duff. The face coverings came off. Reade and Hazelton surveyed their captors as the chance offered, being careful not to betray too great curiosity. "I see one gentleman here whom I had expected to find," remarked Tom quietly. "Me?" hinted Duff. "Well, yes; you, for one, but I refer to that excellent host, Mr.
"That's good of him, I'm sure," snapped Gage. "I've no objection to his staying here, either. Fact is, I'm going to encourage both of you to stay here." "Encourage us?" grinned Harry. "Well, then, I'm going to make you stay here, if you like that word any better." "That will be more difficult," suggested Hazelton. "First of all, we're going to tote your assay outfit over to our camp.
Readers of the preceding volumes of this series, and of other, earlier series, need not the slightest introduction to Tom Reade and Harry Hazelton. Our readers of the "Grammar School Series" know Tom and Harry as two of the members of that famous sextette of schoolboy athletes who, under the leadership of Dick Prescott, were known as Dick & Co.
Holmes had won out for left field, and Hazelton for shortstop. As far as the early outdoor practice showed, the latter was going to be the strongest man of the school in that important position. Dalzell and Reade became first and second basemen. During the rest of March practice proceeded briskly. Six days in every week the youngsters worked hard at the field in the afternoons.
"Now, I would like to go back to the mine and stay there until some time in the night," Tom proposed. "I would like to take Hazelton with me. Soon we will arrange it, if necessary, so that Harry and I shall divide the time at the mine.
"No," scoffed Darrin; "you're too hungry." "I'm going to see what the excitement is about, anyway," muttered Hazelton, starting forward off a run. One by one the other boys yielded to curiosity and started at a jog-trot for the corner where the crowd was gathered.
Neither Hazelton nor myself ever handled a mine yet," Tom answered. "But we have done a lot of railroad work." "Railroad work isn't mine digging," objected Mr. Dunlop. "I'm aware of that, sir," Tom agreed. "Yet boring is largely excavation work; so is tunneling. We've had charge of considerable excavating in our services to railroads." "Very likely," nodded Dunlop, reflectively.
Over at the camp Tom and Harry saw the party arrive. They could see the travelers being served with refreshments on the veranda. "There's the crowd, Harry. And here's a car, coming this way, undoubtedly for us. Now, we've got to go over there for our first practice as bunco men." Harry Hazelton made an unpleasant grimace.
