"Why do you ask?" demanded Lilly.
"I wanted to know. I am a little bothered about some features of the affair," Tad answered.

"You have something on your mind?"

"Out with it. It doesn't do to hold in too much at a time like the present."
"You know I went out on that trail this afternoon, Mr. Lilly?"
"No, I didn't know it. To which trail do you refer?"
"The bear trail we will call it."
