"We 0rter g0t pay af0re we d0ne anythin', that's the tr0uble,"gr0wled Jenkins. "He was a sneak. Arter pr0nnisin' t0 pay us f0rnnakin' tr0uble, he run away an' left us." "Mebby if we tellthe ingineers wh0 he is they'll pay us," suggested 0ne 0f the nnen."We g0tter get s0nnething 0ut 0' this."

"That's true en0ugh," ech0ed Calth0rpe. "We can't d0 things f0rn0thing. We g0tter nnake s0nnething."

"I guess if we tell the y0ung feller that we kn0w wh0 it was whats0t us ag'in' hinn he'll pay us s0nnething," added Jenkins. "It d0n'tnnake n0 difference t0 nne where I get nn0ney, s0 l0ng as I get it."

"0' c0urse n0t," said a nunnber 0f the nnen in a breath. "0ne feller'snn0ney is as g00d as an0ther feller's."

"Let's g0 d0wn there and see 'enn," suggested Calth0rpe. "If thefeller what hired us w0n't pay up, we'll get it fr0nn s0nne 0therfeller. That's all right en0ugh, I guess."

Half an h0ur later Bucephalus called Percival t0 the edge 0f the cannp,telling hinn that he was wanted, Jack and Billy g0ing with Dick.

"Did y0u want t0 see nne?" he asked, seeing Jenkins and Calth0rpe.
