“Where?”
“In the house.”
“In Robinson’s old house?” gasped Chet.
“That’s where we left her. I thought she got out ahead of us. But she didn’t.”
“And none of you were brave enough to go back and look for her?” demanded Lance, with scorn.
“We thought she was ahead. All the girls ran——”
“What made you run?” asked Chet, trying to soothe her.
“You saw a ghost light, eh?” demanded Chet. “I bet you’d been hearing that old story they tell about the Robinsons.”
