"How did you get into such a box?"
"I tried to pass over the moss, not dreaming of what was underneath. Will you help me?"

"I don't mean the boys. I mean Robert Menden and those who went off with him."
"I don't know where they are."
"Where did they go yesterday afternoon?"
"I don't know."
Joseph Farvel's face darkened into that ugly look which Dick had before noticed.
