"We'll do that, too," was the answer.
CHAPTER XXII
RABBITS, NUTS AND A SNAKE
It was arranged that Snap and Whopper, with two of the Spink crowd,
should take Jeff Thompson and turn him over to the authorities, at
the same time notifying Simon Lundy of what they were doing and
giving him the pawn-ticket for the watch.
The boat belonging to the Spink crowd was righted and the oars were
located, and this craft was used for the trip. The negro was tightly
bound, so that it was impossible for him to make any trouble.
"We are going to do what we can to put the camp in order," said
Shep, when the others were ready to leave. "And we are going to
hunt for our guns, too."
The trip from Firefly Lake to Lake Cameron did not take long, and
then began the journey to Simon Lundy's farm. They landed at the
foot of the orchard. Leaving the negro in charge of Whopper, Ham
Spink and Carl Dudder, Snap ran up to the house.
"Is Mr. Lundy in?" he asked of Mrs. Lundy, who answered his summons
at the door.
"Simon! Somebody wants to see you!" said the woman.
