"Look!" cried Ralph. "What can this mean?"
"I don't know them," returned Horace Kelsey.
"Why, that is Percy Paget!"
"Is it possible?"
"And one of those men is Dock Brady, the man who is supposed to have robbed the Westville post office."
"Really! That is interesting!"
"I'll bet a fortune they are the three that did that job!" burst out Ralph, excitedly. "There were two men and a boy, and this crowd is the same."
"Ask one of the officers," suggested Horace Kelsey. "Or, stop, I will do so."
He stepped up to the little crowd, which had come to a halt at a corner, and tapped one of the policemen on the arm.
"I wish to ask you a few private questions about your prisoners," he said, in a low tone.
