Roy and his father laughed.
“See?” exclaimed Mr. Osborne. “Your mother don’t want you to go either.”
Mrs. Osborne looked up in surprise.
“I hadn’t said so,” she exclaimed, with a smile. “I want to hear all about it, first.”
Roy told her everything. She sat and listened with all a mother’s interest. When he had finished, she turned to her husband.
“What do you think, George?”
Mr. Osborne shook his head negatively.
“Why?” asked his wife.
“It’s too risky—” began Mr. Osborne.
