This applies not only to
a chest of sterling silver,
but to the less expensive

and everything we had was all kicked
around. We guessed the Graveyard
Gang had found US out, so Swatty and
me and Bony went to work and fixed
up the door and mended the stove.
We didn't know when they would
come back.
They came back quick enough. The
first we heard was them talking at
the top of the bank, and then all of
them slid down. I guess they wanted
to stop when they got to- the cave
mouth, but Swatty was in the door of
the cave and he had his pockets full
of our throwing stones. and he leaned
out and let them have them. They
yelled and slid right on down to the
creek.
Bony began to cry.
Well, there were about twelve of
the Graveyard Gang down there in the
creek. They got together and talked
about how they would get us and
then they began throwing stones. I
tried to help Swatty stone them, but
the door was too narrow. and he told
me to stay inside and hand him stones
to throw; He threw, as fast as he
could and sometimes he hit Grave
yard kid and sometimes he missed
but one kid can't hardly throw
against twelve, and pretty soon a
stone hit Swatty on the forehead
just on his eyebrow. He put up his
hand to feel the place and another
hit him on the crazy bone, and he
came inside and lay down on the floor
of the cave and Rugged his elbow
and rocked himself and groaned.
guess it hurt him pretty bad. Bony
Just stood and bellered: ooh, I want
to go home! I want to go homc!'
went to the door and began to
throw stones, but I was so mad 1
couldn't aim straight. Swatty sat up
and rocked himself and Rugged his
elbow.
shut the door, he howled at me.
"Come in and shut the door! Shut
tho door"
SO / did wasn't much afraid of
being hit, but ! knew the door shut

it was shut the stones hit against
it like hail. The Graveyard Gang
chcored, but 1t didn't do them any
good: the little throwing stones
couldn't break the door and they
couldn't throw big ones up that far.
In a little while Swatty was just
rubbing his elbow, and he got up
and helped me brace the door shut
with the shovel and things. His fore
head was swelled up like an egg, but
he didn't mind that.
There he said. "This shows 1t
was a good thing we have II cave"
and ! guessed he was right. He went
over and made Bony stop blubbering.
lie made him stop by telling him to
hurry and build a fire in the stove
because maybe we might have to stay
there IL week, or even longer, and
we'd have to cook potatoes to live
on or else starve to death. SO Bony

forgot to cry and started to make a
fire..
Between the boards of our door we
could see out through the crack and
we could see that the Graveyard gang
didn't know what to do next to get U.S.
Once in while they threw a stone or
two, but that didn't hurt u.s. And
then they did the thing that chased
us out.
l guess it was about o'clock by
then. We thought it was later be-
cause it was getting dark, but we
storm coming up. 1t was coming up
back of US and was hiding the sun.
All at once there was thunder, and
then the stove began to smoke out
into the cave. Then the whole cave
began to fill with smoke | coughed.
was blowing the smoke down the
chimney. but Swatty went to the
stove and kicked the top off and be-
gan scattering the wood and Goals
over the floor to put out the fire.
Some of the Graveyard gang had mt
something over the top of our CHM
ney so that the smoke would coma
into the cave and smoke us out.
Well that was all right We kicked
the fire out and that ought to have
stopped the smoke, but it didn't The
smoke came in worse than ever, and
te.t The Graveyard gang was filling
our chimney with burning grass or
straw or something and then stopping
the top of the chimney so the smoke
would come down into the cave
Tho smoke got so thick we couldn't
see and we couldn't breathe. Swatty
looked out of the door cracks and
there were eight or nine of the Grave
yard gang down there in the creek
laying for us. but what could we do?
We couldn't stay in the cave and be
suffocated to death, could we? So
what we had to do we had to do
mighty quick.
Swatty threw open the cave door.
He had picked up a stick and he sort
of waved it over his head. Bony was
blubberng again and couldn't see
very well for the smoke in nv ewes
and neither could Swatty, l guess. but
Swatty waved the stick and shouted :.
Come on. now he shouted. We've
got EN- surrounded! Charge 'em,
We've got 'em now"
Wen, the Graveyard kids looked III
at the top of the other bank and
Swatty started to slide down the bank
right at them, and me and Bony we
started to slide down, and the Graye-
yard kids turned and ran up tho
creek. I guess they were scared
that Swatty had seen lot more of
our kids coming. Anyway. they ran
about half block and then they saw
there was just Swatty, and Bony and
me, and that we were climbing nm
the other bank to get away, and
they came for US.
We didn't have much of a start.
