Mr.Darrison, will you drive me ?" "Why--er--yes, but it will take time, Captain Putnam, an' my wife wants me to----" "I'll pay you for your time, sir," interrupted the owner of the school quickly. "Yes, sir? all right, sir.
Jump in an' we'll go right after the runaway." "Can I go along ?" asked Pepper. "I'd like to go, too," came from Stuffer Singleton. "So would I," added Bob Grenwood. "Very well, you three cadets can go along," replied the captain.
"It is possible you may be needed--if poor Snow has been hurt." He turned to Jack.
"How do you feel, Major Ruddy ?" "Oh, I guess I'll be all right after I have rested up," answered Jack, with a faint smile. "You have a cut on the forehead." "Yes, sir, but it doesn't hurt like it did." "Better bathe it with warm water and put something on it," said Captain Putnam, and then leaped into the carriage, and Pepper, Stuffer and Bob followed. "Hope they find Andy all right," said Joe Nelson, as the turnout moved off in the direction the runaway had taken. "Yes, it would be too bad if Andy was seriously injured," answered the young major.
"Come on, I'm going in and wash up and put some witch hazel on my forehead." "Glad to see you, young gentlemen," said a pleasant voice, when the newcomers entered the school building, and George Strong, the second assistant teacher, stepped forward to shake each by the hand.
