“Why,
of
course!
Might
have
thought
of
that
before.
You
mean
Number
One?”
“No—Number
Two—under
the
cross.
The
other
place
is
bad—too
common.”
“All
right.
It’s
nearly
dark
enough
to
start.”
Injun
Joe
got
up
and
went
about
from
window
to
window
cautiously
peeping
out.
Presently
he
said:
“Who
could
have
brought
those
tools
here?
Do
you
reckon
they
can
be
upstairs?”
The
boys’
breath
forsook
them.
Injun
Joe
put
his
hand
on
his
knife,
halted
a
moment,
undecided,
and
then
turned
toward
the
stairway.
The
boys
thought
of
the
closet,
but
their
strength
was
gone.
The
steps
came
creaking
up
the
stairs—the
intolerable
distress
of
the
situation
woke
the
stricken
resolution
of
the
lads—they
were
about
to
spring
for
the
closet,
when
there
was
a
crash
of
rotten
timbers
and
Injun
Joe
landed
on
the
ground
amid
the
debris
of
the
ruined
stairway.
He
gathered
himself
up
cursing,
and
his
comrade
said:
“Now
what’s
the
use
of
all
that?
If
it’s
anybody,
and
they’re
up
there,
let
them
stay
there—who
cares?
If
they
want
to
jump
down,
now,
and
get
into
trouble,
who
objects?
It
will
be
dark
in
fifteen
minutes—and
then
let
them
follow
us
if
they
want
to.
I’m
willing.
In
my
opinion,
whoever
hove
those
things
in
here
caught
a
sight
of
us
and
took
us
for
ghosts
or
devils
or
something.
I’ll
bet
they’re
running
yet.”
Joe
grumbled
awhile;
then
he
agreed
with
his
friend
that
what
daylight
was
left
ought
to
be
economized
in
getting
things
ready
for
leaving.
Shortly
afterward
they
slipped
out
of
the
house
in
the
deepening
twilight,
and
moved
toward
the
river
with
their
precious
box.
