them.

"Ha! so you are going to come here in spite of my warnings, eh?"
he said, harshly.

"You haven't warned us or anything, Mr. Spink," answered Snap, calmly.

"Can't you read? Doesn't the sign say, 'All trespassing forbidden'?
That is plain English, isn't it?"

"I haven't seen any sign," said Shep

"Because you didn't want to see it, young man!"

"We have only been down to the cove swimming," put in Giant.

"This land is mine now, and I want you boys to keep off of it,"
exclaimed Mr. Spink, hotly. "If I catch you on it again I'll have
you arrested."

"We'll get off as soon as we can," answered Snap. And then he
added suddenly: "Is Ham home?"

"You mean my son Hamilton, I presume? Yes, he is home. What
do you want of him?"

"Nothing, just now. But we may want something later," answered
Snap, and started again for the road, his chums following.
