"I'll play my part all right, don't you fret yourself about that."
"Sure you understand?"
"Sure's shooting."
"Then I'll have to hurry back. See you later."
"So long."
That was the end of the conversation and, after waiting a few minutes they started again for the boat. Josh was not in sight as they stepped around the corner nor did they see anyone who, they thought, could have been his companion.
"That was Josh Kelley," Jack declared.
"Sure it was," Bob assured him. "I saw him come out of that shed there and turn the corner. That's why I stopped."
"Sure he didn't see us?"
"I wasn't at first, but if he had, I guess he wouldn't have been talking to that other fellow."
