silently busy as a diligent young worm
sn the heart of a nut.
Favoring this comparison. the saw
dust box was naturally almost as dark
as the inside of nut is believed to be
but Penrod worked by the light of a
lantern. which raised the temperature
OF the box TO degree that would have
frightened a Stoker but subtracted
nothing from the fever of composition.
Penrod was writing.
He was writing CHAPTER TENTH
OF his secret novel, Harold RAMO-
REF THE ROAD-AGENT OR WILD
LIFE AMONG THE ROCKY MTS.
''Soon 1T was Mr.. wilson's turn to be
scared and he started begging to be let
off and said IT was not his fault and
how he had never done anything. oh

thing to this poor old man oh no but
guess the time has come now when
you VIII have to be eXsposed so Just

TO prove you committed the foregy your
own self 10 long years ago that this
poor old man got put in the peniten-
atriy for and been 10 long years in IA
dirty cell with nothing but bread and
water and little rice

that prove he murdered your children
and little baby daughter also
81 didn't either and you better look
but how you talk said Mr.. Wilson and
pujered his soul before his Maker No

murdered the old mans children and
little baby daughter also
"Soon they attempted to put some
hanlSuffs on Mr. Wilson but he pulled
out his ottonatick and reched over
Harolds soldier where they were
struggling and began shooting away at
the old man but Harold reched up and
caught hold of his hand with his hand
and took the ottomatick away and held
him until the old man could get the
hanl1uffs on him.
''There sneered the old man when he
was all tied UP tight I guess you are
In nice fix now just like the way /
used to be for 16 long years. Ha EIa /
Ho do you like it and went on tanting !
him with his helpless condition Yes |
sneered the old man 1 think you are !

so mad he began STEPPING on Mr.. Wilson
where he was lying on the floor
"SOon Mr.. Wilson started crying at 4
this and our hero and the old man |
tainted him some more for vile then |
went on out with a smile. Mr. Wilson |
quit crying because it did not hurt any |
more where the old man had kept step |
ing on him and soon managed to shake |
off his bonds with his teeth You Harold |
Ramorez sneered he now I will hunt |
you down like dog and he hunted |
around until he found his whistle on |
the floor some where and soon summoned |
his detectives again and began reviln !

cliff in the Rocky Mts and takin the !
old man with him we can easily catch |
up with them because it is dark out !
side and probly it is going to rain too
so after talking some more they soon
went on out and started after our hero
and the old man
'SOOn a storm came up and Mr.. VIII
son and the detectives got close on the |
trail of the fugitives in the storm be-
cause they could see them by the light
of the flashes of lightning first would !
come a flash of lightRing and then
would come some thunder
"CHAPiTER EVELENTH
was terrible night and the lighting |
would scared anybody 1T kept lighting |
and laundering all the time and the old |
man could not run fast and Mr.. Wilson /
and the detectives would shoot at them /
by the light of the lighting and the !
lighting would strike rocks that would 1
fall off the cliffs and almost hit them |
and the wind blowing trees down too |
and it got freeing cold and the old man /
got hir with one of the rocks and broke 1
his leg so our hero had to carry him |
on his back and more rocks began fall |
ing because an earthquake had started |
now besides the lighting and thunder |
and our hero could not find his way :
among the cliffs and then it started |
raining too
