The Go Ahead Boys laughed but their interest was too keen in the men who now in the distance could be seen more distinctly.
"You don't suppose those two strange white men can be coming back here, do you?" inquired Grant in a whisper.
"Yes, that is just who they are," replied Kitoni. "Look yonder!" he added as he pointed in the direction in which Zeke and the Navajo had departed.
Two other men also were seen coming from that direction and no effort was required to induce the Go Ahead Boys to believe that Zeke and his companion were returning to the camp.
CHAPTER XXI
THE RETURN OF THE STRANGERS
The excitement among the Go Ahead Boys at once became intense. Convinced now that the two men, whose presence whenever they had visited the camp had created trouble, were now returning and the fact that the belligerent Zeke and the Navajo were also likely to arrive at about the same time, convinced the boys that some exciting scenes were to be witnessed.
As yet it was manifest that neither party of approaching men had become aware of the coming of the others.
"There they go!" exclaimed George excitedly when Zeke and his companion disappeared from sight. "Maybe they won't be back here until after the other fellows have left."
