Ted was little, but his pluck had been tried on many occasions, and this was a great surprise.
'Well, he's on'y a kiddy,' said Phil pityingly, and with the superiority two years may confer.
Dick found the three were looking to him for an explanation.
'Ted's real scared,' he said.

'We made a discovery this afternoon--in there.' 'In the big drive ?' asked Jacker.

The others looked startled.
Dick nodded, and took up the candle.

'Come an' see,' he said.
Dick led the way along the opposite drive, and his mates followed, not too eagerly, Ted bringing up the rear.

The drive was about eighty feet in extent.
