“What do you think of these geese?” asked Owen, pulling a proof from his pocket.
“Evidently they felt offended,” said Allan. “They seem to be turning their backs on you.”
“I think they were a little miffed,” admitted Owen. “Geese are mighty independent, anyway. Here’s another lot I caught over by the old Dutch farmhouse, that wouldn’t notice me at all.”
McConnell joined them with a proof of one of his numerous attempts at Artie. This time Artie had his crossbow.
“‘Over by the old Dutch farmhouse.’”

“No, I haven’t, but I want to. I think you fellows have neglected me. I want to see what is going on the same as any one else.”
