Another gone crazy!” With this Samanthy and Jane went tottering through the crowd. “Look here, young fellow, you’re a pretty good sort of a fellow, but you’d better be going on your way, and not be meddlin’ with my business, or you’ll just come with me.” “See this ten-dollar bill?” said Ronald. “Recon I do, Pard,” answered the officer. “Well, you just let that boy go and it’ll be yours!” “Now, see here, young fellow, I like you and I’ll do that, providin’ you pass right along and keep mum ’bout this here little affair.” “It’s a go.” We passed quickly out from among the cheering crowd of Harvard boys, and soon we were spinning over the dusty road to the hotel.

I told him my story, but to no avail, for when I finished, he said, “Well, you’ll have to show me!” “I will,” I exclaimed, and started to pull up my skirts to prove it, for I had a pair of blue overalls on underneath. Whereupon Samanthy and Jane screamed. “Oh, don’t let her,” shouted Samanthy. “She has quite lost her senses.” So with Samanthy screaming and Jane holding my dresses down, I stood trembling with anger.
