“I did do it pretty well, didn’t I?” grinned John.
“Yes, you did, but I think the way I soaked you and Fred was just as good.”
“You didn’t see a water bug then?”
“No, and you didn’t slip either.”
“Yes, I did; on purpose though. Let’s call it off now.”
“I’m agreeable,” laughed George, “even if you did get the better of me.”
“How about me?” demanded Fred. “Pop wet me just as much as he did String and I don’t see that I am even with him yet.”
“You ‘tend to your sailing,” laughed George. “That’ll have to satisfy you.”
“I can steer you on a rock you know,” warned Fred.
“Don’t do it though,” begged Grant. “I’m an innocent party and I’d suffer just as much as the others.”
