"I shall not go with that party," added Lawry.
"But I want a pilot," said Ben.
"What's the trouble, Wilford?" demanded Taylor.
"Let me tell him you will go, Lawry?" whispered Ben. "He may be hard on you if you don't."
"I will not. I must see Mr. Sherwood at once."
"What's the matter?" asked Ethan.
Lawry was explaining what had happened, when Ben came down with
Taylor.
"I shall not go in her till I have seen Mr. Sherwood," added Lawry, as he finished his brief statement.
"Then I shall not," said Ethan.
"I can steer her myself," said Ben to Taylor.
