[Roy Blakeley by Percy Keese Fitzhugh]@TWC D-Link bookRoy Blakeley CHAPTER IV 1/6
THE PLOT GROWS THINNER--OR ELSE THICKER Pee-wee says it grows thicker and I say it grows thinner, so I put it both ways.
I told him things would begin to stir up in this chapter and he said a thing always gets thicker when you stir it.
I should worry. "Suppose we should go boating or something like that where there's a lot of water," I told him; "that would thin it some if you added water wouldn't it ?" "You're crazy," he shouted. Westy Martin wanted to name it The Deep Dyed Villain--so you can call it that if you want to--I don't care. Now I'll start off.
You remember about Mr.Donnelle saying that he had a wireless.
Well, pretty soon after what I've been telling you about, the men went away and they were all laughing and good natured about it. I heard one of them say that the Boy Scouts were a wide--awake lot. Believe me, they wouldn't say that if they saw us sleeping after a day's hike at Temple Camp.
