CHAPTER XVIII
LIVE—I CANNOT SHOOT YOU
"Back so soon!" cried Lawrence, grasping Harry's hand, as he came up. "Thank God you are back safe!"
"Never had an easier job, did we, Jack?" laughed Harry. "Even Bruno is ashamed of himself, it was so easy."
"And you found out what you were after?"
"Yes," and Harry told his story.
Lawrence and Dan listened in silence. "What do you think, Dan?" asked Lawrence.
"I reckon it's fight or run. When Jerry finds he cannot surprise us, he will attack us openly."
"I don't feel like running," said Lawrence.
"Well, I don't feel inclined that way myself," said Dan, resorting to his tobacco box.
