Get up and chase him!" shouted Holmes in great excitement, as he pulled a revolver out of his hip-pocket and dashed madly out of the room after the fleeing and recreant Budd, while the rest of us, galvanized back to life by the sudden developments, took after the great detective down the corridor, in the way that they generally do in the movies, all hollering: "Stop thief!" at the top of our voices.
The yelping of the mongrel pack, the shouts and whoops of the boys, and the laughter of the maids or men about the kitchen and back-yard, all in their best clothes and in high spirits, were exhilarating, and with many whoops and much "hollering," we climbed the yard fence, and, disdaining a road, of course, set out down the hill across the field, taking long strides, each one bragging loudly of what he would do.
I heard the whoop again; it was behind me yet, but in a different place; it kept coming, and kept changing its place, and I kept answering, till by and by it was in front of me again, and I knowed the current had swung the canoe's head down-stream, and I was all right if that was Jim and not some other raftsman hollering.
We got nice quarters and your ma likes it here " "They're laughing at me. I heard 'em hollering." "They won't laugh long. No, you're learnin' fast, and we're all havin' a nice time. Only one thing I'm kinda tired of that Miz' Ring. I let her go, but I'll get you another " "She quit, eh?" "Um-m, not exactly. "I don't blame her. I've been mighty mean. But I couldn't help it, pa.
To-morrow something may cross him, and the minute he feels the pull of it, he'll be off on the trail the blow of a man, the hollering out of the wild geese God knows what it'll take to start him wild again and forget us all jest the way a child forgets its parents!" A voice broke in upon them, calling far away: "Dan! Dan Barry!" In the living-room below they heard it, Dan and Kate Cumberland.
He saw my scout badge that I wore and he asked me my name. That's all he knows about me. Pretty soon something that made a lot of noise moved right over the hole and I guess it got stuck there. He said it must be a tank that got kind of caught there. Pretty soon I could hardly breathe, but I could hear him hollering and banging with a stone or something up against that thing.
So he made a new law himself very quick and told the soldiers what to do, and they came; and the President's wife was hollering like anything and nervous; but the boy was just laughing and jumping around the man, saying, 'Catch me; why don't you catch me, old Good Friday breaker.
"Hurrah! hurrah! hurrah! go on! go on! stop hollering hurrah! go on! stop hollering hurrah!" was now heard on all sides, till at last, seeing no end to the enthusiasm of his ardent admirers, Matchless Jack stepped forward, and, with his lips moving in pantomime, plunged into the thick of the part. Silence soon followed, but was fifty times broken by uncontrollable bursts of applause.
By this time it was very dark, and I was so hoarse with hollering, and so aching in my arms with rubbing sticks, and my legs hurt so with running up and down trying to see a boat or something, that I just dumped myself down on the grass and cried and I guess I fell asleep.
Before we get out of here the old man will be hollering his head off for that 'Retreat of the Bandits' three-reeler." The camera man laughed ruefully. "I ain't worrying any about the old man. He's back there safe in little old New York. It's Frank Farrar that's on my mind. How is he going to get out of here?"
