CHAPTER I

"Pshaw! I wanted to go in the carryall," grumbled Ritter.
"So did I," added Gus Coulter.
"Well, this is full, so you'll have to take the carriages," answered Peleg Snuggers.

"Everybody hold fast!" he shouted, as he took up the reins.
"We are off!" shouted Pepper, gaily.

"Farewell to Cedarville and ho! for Putnam Hall!" "Wish I had room, I'd turn a handspring for you," came from Andy, who was quite an acrobat.

"That new hoss won't stand for 'em." "All right, Peleg, I'll keep as quiet as a lamb without a tail." "Why is a lamb without a tail quiet ?" asked Fred Century, quickly.
"Give it up, Fred.

Why ?" "Because he has no tale to tell." "Wow!" "What a joke!" "Throw him out!" "Give him some cotton to eat!" "Say, do keep quiet!" pleaded Peleg Snuggers, as the boys in the carryall commenced to push Fred from one seat to another.
