CHAPTER XXXIII
TOGETHER AGAIN—CONCLUSION
The two boys were much surprised by the unexpected appearance of the man from Baltimore and for the moment knew not what to say or do.
“Do you know one of those men?” asked Andy Hume.
“Yes, that one,” answered Mark, pointing out the wrong-doer. “His name is Dan Markel, and he robbed Jacob Hockley of his watch and nearly all of his money.”
“You don’t say! Then he won’t be the fellow we want here.”
By this time Markel was close at hand. Now for the first time he caught sight of the boys and he halted in dismay.
“So we’ve met again,” said Mark, coldly.
“Why—er—how are you?” stammered the man from Baltimore. He knew not what to say.
