The Arkmobile came to a sudden stop, and a voice outside was heard to exclaim: "Where's the chauffeur?" Capt. Noah rushed up on deck, followed by his family, Mr. Jonah and Marjorie. "What's the matter?" asked Capt. Noah, looking about to find the owner of the voice. "Oh, that's what they all say!" came the reply. "You know jolly well what's the matter!" "Who are you, and where are you?" asked Capt. Noah, vainly trying to find this remarkable person, who seemed to be nothing but a voice. "Who am I? You'll find out pretty quick. Where am I? You'd better find that out even quicker!" Looking up to the Weathercock, Capt. Noah shouted: "Ahoy, there, Lookout! Who's delaying us?" "The Majesty of the Law," came the answering voice again--this time so distinctly that every one turned in the direction from which it came, and then a huge megaphone on the top of a post repeated: "The Majesty of the Law!" "Well, I'll be blowed!" exclaimed Capt. Noah. |
