“But what good thing has come to Garry?” demanded Dick.
“Why, I’ve got what I wanted most,—the thing that I wondered all summer how we could bring about. That is the knowledge that the Three Ranger Boys will be together for some time to come, and the knowledge that I have two of the finest friends that could ever be given a fellow; and last but not least, I have a share in the Ruth mine, one of the richest things in the state. What more could I have?”
“Well,” whispered Dick to Phil, “If I’m any good at reading ‘sign,’ when he’s a little older he’ll have something else besides the mine that’s named Ruth.”
And here we leave the Extraordinary Unit of the Maine State Ranger Service.
