“And see what he has done for the whole family!” cried Carol, her eyes sparkling. “Why, this oil is going to make Father rich.”
“It’s making us rich, too,” said Tom.
“But think of what might have happened if we had put ourselves in the hands of those rascals,” came from Mr. Goby. “I tell you, Tom Swift, you are one young man out of a million!”
“The best ever,” murmured Hitt. “I’ll bank on him every time.”
“So will I,” laughed Ned.
Tom could not stand all this praise, so he merely smiled and turned away. Yet it pleased him greatly.
Other adventures are still in store for Tom Swift, but these must be kept for another volume. For the present we will leave him with his great success in making a wonderful improvement in oil-well machinery and bringing in his Great Oil Gusher.
