Owen ignored this interruption. “All those in favor will please say, Aye!” and Owen and McConnell roared a tremendous “Aye!”

“Then elect me unanimously,” said Owen, “or there will be trouble!”
“All in favor—” Allan began.
“Aye!” shouted McConnell, Allan following after.
“All unanimously elected!” said Owen. “That’s good. Now we are a club!”
