It has a spring by it, too, which is a good thing, for drinking this swamp and creek water will make us all sick.

I was all through here on a camp-hunt once, and I remember a place on the other side of the river where two big hollow trees stand right together on top of a sort of bluff.

About fifty yards further down the river there is a spring, just under the bluff.

We must find the place if we can, to-night, and to do it we must first get across the river.

It's so low now we can easily wade it, I think, and Judie can be pushed across on a log." As soon as night fell the plan was put into execution.
