Is that a go ?" "It's wonderfully kind of you," Dick answered gratefully. But before you get through cutting and hauling birch bark you may think I'm a pretty hard taskmaster. I'll call it a go, if you boys will." "We'll pay our full debt, Mr.Driggs, and pay you a load of thanks besides." "All right," nodded Driggs, jumping down off the truck, in haste to get away from the embarrassment of being thanked. |
