"Find any more?" called Donald.
"Not yet." Nor were there any more found, although they looked long and carefully up and down the road for some time. "What is the difference between them?" questioned Pepper, when they had finally given up the hunt and sat down by the side of the road to compare the two coins. "Why, instead of a ship this one shows, on the one side, a man in a chest with a sword in one hand and a bag of money in the other, and around the edge are the words, 'I take the responsibility.' The other side has the wreck like the first one," concluded Rand after he had examined them. "It's a very curious thing," he continued, handing the one coin back to Pepper. "I don't see anything very curious about them," demurred Donald. "I mean it is very curious how they got here," explained Rand. "I don't see anything very curious about that, either," went on Donald. "Why shouldn't they be here as well as anywhere?" "I don't know, I am sure," laughed Rand, "only I don't see why they should be here, or anywhere, for that matter." |
