"And so will Mr. Phipps."
"Where am I?" asked the young engineer.
"We've had an accident, Mr. Phipps," replied Tad. "How do you feel?"
"As if I had been put through the ore mill. Did we have a smash?"
"I should say we did?"
"Who's hurt?"
"Walter was knocked out too, but he is coming round now. Ned thinks the boy is not hurt very badly."
"No, I'm half scared to death, but I'm all right otherwise," answered
Walter for himself.
"Which track are we on?" demanded Phipps suddenly, trying to locate his position.
"Our own. You nearly got run over on the other. I pulled you off just in time."
