Ah, it's a bad morning's work for your first journey." "It is, Ike," I said; "but I didn't know any better.

How did you know where I was ?" "How did I know?
Why, Shock saw you and followed you, and come back and fetched me, when I was staring at the cart and wondering what had gone of you two." "Where is he now ?" I asked.
"What, Shock?
Oh, I don't know.

He's a queer chap.

P'r'aps they've got him instead of you." I stopped short and looked at him, but saw directly that he was only joking, and went on again: "You don't think that," I said quickly; "for if you did you would not have come away.

Do you think he has gone back to the cart ?" "Oh, there's no knowing," he replied.
