Good-bye.
We'll see you this afternoon at the depot." I didn't say anything about being particularly glad, but just as I left the door Corny ran out after me.
"Do you think it would be any good to take a fishing-line ?" she cried.
"Guess you'd better," I shouted back, and then I ran home, laughing.
"Here are the tickets!" I cried out to Rectus, "and we've got to be at the station by four o'clock this afternoon.

There's no backing out now." "Who wants to back out ?" said Rectus, looking up from his trunk, into which he had been diving.
"Can't say," I answered.

"But I know one person who wont back out." "Who's that ?" "Corny," said I.
Rectus stood up.
"Cor----!" he exclaimed.
"Ny," said I, "and father and mother.

They took the only room left,--engaged it while I was there." "Can't we sell our tickets ?" asked Rectus.
"Don't know," said I."But what's the good?
Who's going to be afraid of a girl,--or a whole family, for that matter?
We're in for it now." Rectus didn't say anything, but his expression saddened.
We had studied out this trip the night before, and knew just what we had to do.

We first went from St.Augustine, on the sea-coast, to Tocoi, on the St.John's River, by a railroad fifteen miles long.
