"Good-bye!" a voice called to them, and they looked to see the pretty girl going ashore.
"This must be Dailsburg—where she lives," said Frank.
"Yes, this is Dailsburg," spoke a gentleman standing near them. "Riverview is the next stop."
They thanked him, and waved to Miss Gertrude. She was the only passenger to go ashore and the steamer was soon on its way again. The boys saw nothing of Mr. Callum.
"We'd better get our baggage together, if the next stop is ours," suggested Frank to his brother. Then he and Andy became busy. They were on deck as the boat approached the dock of Riverview, a town of considerable size. Eagerly they looked about for a sign of the school.
"I wonder where it can be?" asked Frank. "Gee whizz! I hope it isn't back in the woods. I was thinking it might be on the river shore, so we could go boating."
"Same here," put in Andy. "Let's ask some one."
From a deckhand they learned that their boarding school was about a quarter of a mile from the pier where the steamer had stopped.
"And is it on the river?" asked Andy.
"Yes, right on the shore," replied the deckhand. "You just keep along the water road and you'll come to it."
