"Then you saw the same things, did you, Thad?" asked Smithy, eagerly, and with a really happy look on his delicate face; because this practice of "doing things" was a new experience for him, and success made him feel proud indeed. "Partly so; though you went me one better when you made out that his hands were white under the grime," answered the scout-master.

"There you go suspecting that I've got something on tap just because I call up and invite you to cover a few miles, when the weather is so fine. But for once you've hit the nail on the head, my boy." "That settles it, then. I'll rush right over, and join you, Hugh." "Be careful and don't break your neck in your hurry, Thad.

Some very rich people are affected by it, particularly queer old ladies." "You're jumping ahead too fast, Thad," remonstrated Hugh, chidingly. "I haven't admitted yet that I suspect Owen more than I did before. In fact, these occurrences, such as his being in the house each time a spoon vanishes, may turn out to simply be coincidences." "That sounds just like you, Hugh.

I'll give him a scare if he tries to jump at us, never fear." "Just as you say, Maurice; only PLEASE don't get excited and fill me up with birdshot, instead of the thief." "No danger, if you keep where you belong, in the rear. There's some pretty suspicious looking trees ahead there, on both sides of the road. We want to watch close now, Thad.

Hugh and Thad walked on, the latter fairly boiling with illy-suppressed anger. "That fellow always gives me a pain, Hugh," he was saying, as they increased the distance separating them from the still merry trio in the rear. "He is really the meanest boy you could find in all the towns of this country.

"Come, Donee," he said. But the miller's little Thad. and Jenny had found Donee behind the trough, and the three were making a nettle basket together, and were very well acquainted already. "Let the child stay till you come back from fishing, Oostogah," said the miller. So Donee staid all the afternoon.

"Thanks, that pleases me," replied the scout-master, relinquishing the weapon that had proved to be worth its weight in silver to them, in that it cowed the trio of lawless men who had their headquarters on Sturgeon Island. It was not very light inside the cabin, so that the first thing Thad did in his customary energetic way was to take a lantern from a hook, and put a match to the wick.

Perhaps, after all, you may be right, and that it would be a good thing all around if Tip could be sent away with Leon. But it's likely Leon will weaken when his trial comes off, and betray his pal; though he may give Tip a hint beforehand so he can clear out in time." "And about Nick Lang?" continued Thad. "I haven't changed my mind about him, as yet," Hugh replied sturdily enough.

But I've been wondering, Thad, what if Nick could have a revelation about like the one that came to Jean Valjean at the time that splendid old priest, looking straight at the thief when the officers dragged him back with those silver candlesticks and spoons hidden under his dirty blouse, told them the men had committed no wrong, because he, the priest, had given the silver to him; which we know he had done in his mind, after discovering how he had been robbed."

"Now, if these men were what Bob White tells us they have down in his country, moonshiners, I could understand it. But we've rested enough now; let's go on to the boat. Perhaps after all, we might decide to leave the island to look after itself from now on." "I'd sure be sorry to hear you say that, Thad," remarked Davy, his face showing keen disappointment.
