"Gee! It's Hamilton!" he heard some one say, and he recognized Stiver's voice.
"Then I guess it's all up with us," announced Dutton, straightening up, and, with his chums, approaching Dick.
The young millionaire said nothing.
"Are you going to let us in? We haven't the countersign," said Dutton, with an uneasy laugh.
"You can go in," replied Dick, producing the key to the front door.
"And I suppose you'll squeal in the morning," went on Dutton, as he and his cronies entered.
Dick didn't answer.
"You should have known better than to risk going, Dutton," said Stiver. "Of course he'll tell. He owes you too much not to."
But Dick didn't tell, and Dutton's breach of discipline was not discovered.
