I have to admit he was right, too.
But anyway, I knew that they hadn't received any word about me from anybody, and I was all up in the air about that.

I could see that Jake Holden hadn't been there at all and that nobody had come and told them about the signal, either.

I didn't exactly ask them, but I could tell it all the same.

So I told them all about everything that happened, about how I got caught in the marsh and all that, and especially about Wig being such a hero.

Then she cried a little, kind of, and I said there was no use crying because I was home all right.
