Tingley could see the half-naked savages leaping for the bridles and clawing at the stage door as they strove to get hand-holds; but the speed was too great for them; the old Concord went reeling and bumping through the entire party, leaving several warriors writhing in the sand where the hoofs of the fright-maddened broncos had spurned them.
"But sometimes they don't want to lose money any quicker than a poor man. If he's paid for the island " "I don't see how he can lose," declared Ruth, quickly. "If Blent has claimed a title that cannot be proved, Blent will have to lose." "I bet Mr. Tingley didn't buy without having the title searched," observed Jerry. "Blent's covered his tracks.
Just then Bob looked at his watch in the firelight, and exclaimed: "No wonder it seems dark do you know it's half after four right now?" "Wow! mother will be scared," said Ralph Tingley. Just then there came a cry from Tom. Then followed a heavy, smothered thud. The boys dashed to the entrance. It was pitch dark.
The boys and girls went down to the dock, singing and shouting. Mrs. Tingley and the foreman came behind. Three other men were making ready a huge punt in which the entire party might be transported to the island. Later the punt would return for the extra baggage. This vehicle for water-travel was a shallow, skiff-like boat, almost as broad as it was long, and with a square bow and stern.
Each had been tied in a queer bundle so, in trimming the tree, the nature of the contents could not be guessed. The oddest shaped things hung from the branches of the Christmas tree, and the boys had excelled in making up these "surprise packages." Mrs. Tingley handed the presents out, while the boys lifted them down for her.
Robert Carothers, of Newport, made a post-mortem examination of the body at White's undertaking establishment. It was made in the presence of Dr. J. O. Jenkins, Drs. J. L. and C. T. Phythian, Dr. J. W. Fishback and Coroner W. S. Tingley. The examination occupied over an hour, and was very thorough. The result was the finding of a foetus of between four or five months' gestation.
Swing and Thomas prepared the way, and are the prototypes of these modern saints: Felix Adler, Minot Savage, Brand Whitlock, B. Fay Mills, Rabbi Fleischer, M. M. Mangasarian, Henry Frank, Thomas Osborne, John Worthy, Ben Lindsey, Margaret Lagrange, Levi M. Powers, John E. Roberts, Winifred Sackville Stoner, Sam Alschuler, Katharine Tingley, James A. Burns, Jacob Beilhart, McIvor Tyndall, and all the other radiant rationalists in ordinary who gratify the messianic instinct of their particular group.
Robert Carothers submitted a report of the result of the post-mortem which was held by order of Coroner Tingley. Dr. W. H. Crane, the chemist who made an analysis of the stomach of the murdered woman, regretted having no written report of the analysis, as it had not then been completed, but testified to having found cocaine in the stomach.
"Don't you mind, Miss Ruth. He's bound to git me out of the way if he can," whispered Jerry. "Rufe Blent is all the law there is in Logwood, I guess." "But Mr. Tingley will help you." "Maybe. But if Blent can't prove this hatched up business against me, he'll keep right on persecuting me, if I don't light out. An' I believe I found something, Miss Ruth." "Your uncle's money?"
"That's the way to treat them!" declared Madge, tossing her head, when the boys had gone. "I don't know," said Ruth slowly. "We might be glad to have them help us get the pine-needles." "I believe you are too soft-hearted, Ruth Fielding," declared Belle Tingley. "It's because she likes Tom so well," said Lluella, slily.
