"Couldn't you come to?"
"No, because they might leave while we were gone."
"Then I s'pose I'd have to do it," Jim replied; but it could readily be seen that he did not care for such a job.
Without saying anything to his companion, Jet decided that if the men should be in this camp on the morning of the second day he would send Jim to the village, and take the chances of their concluding to make a change of location.
Surely Bob would not think of starting off that night, therefore the amateur detective felt it was safe for him to take all the rest he needed, and, after a hearty supper, he and Jim turned in.
The sun was an hour high in the heavens when the boys awakened next morning.
As a matter of course the first thought of both was regarding the game they were watching, and their gaze was at once directed toward the other camp.
Both men could be seen lounging around the fire, and Jet said in a tone of relief:
"It's all right so far. If they are there to-morrow you shall go back."
Jim made no protest unless one might have been read in the expression of his face.
