"He will never be any better." "And he may be a great deal worse," said the second boy, slapping the other on the back so hard that the dust flew under the blow.

"Who would ever have thought," he continued, "when we saw the strange men sail into the harbour last year, with this yacht, that she would turn out to be a stolen craft, and that she would one day be put up for sale, and that old Mrs. Newcome would buy her for us? It's like a story in a book." "It's better than any story I ever read, Jack," responded the other boy.

I guess Benton will do for us." They looked about for shelter, but there were woods now on both sides of the stream, and through them they could get no glimpse of any farmhouse. "Well, I wouldn't go into one if I saw it, now!" exclaimed Harvey. "I can't[...]".

The Samoset River, winding down prettily through hills and sloping farm lands to the bay of the same name, gleamed in the sunlight, now with a polished surface like ebony in some sheltered inlet, or again sparkling with innumerable points of light where its surface was whipped up into tiny waves by a brisk moving wind.
