“Well I don’t know that there’s anything so strange about the cabin looking the same as the other one, the one that vanished. They build them very much alike up here.”
“I know they do, but—”
“But what?”
“Nothing. I was just wondering.”
“Well, I wish you’d do your wondering out loud. Here’s a time when two heads are better than one.”
“I was just wondering how they happened to build two of them so exactly alike. But what had we better do now?”
“I think we’d better watch right here for awhile,” Bob replied after a moment’s thought.
“My idea exactly, but don’t you think it would be a good plan to make a detour round in front and see if we can find any signs of a trail? That cabin must be pretty near on the line.”
“Good idea,” Bob agreed. “But we must be mighty careful.”
They at once struck off through the woods moving cautiously and keeping a good distance away from the cabin. It took them nearly an hour to reach the opposite side of it and they were obliged to confess that they had not seen anything that even remotely resembled a trail.
