If Dave is in trouble he'll
be sure to need some of us!"
CHAPTER IV
DAVE DARRIN IS ANGRY
"Keep on calling, Dave!" shouted Dick, as they ran toward the
sound of the voice.
"This way!" answered Darry, his voice sounding louder as they
neared him.
"What's up?" Tom asked as they ran.
Dave's voice sounded in wrathful explosion.
"Eh?" Tom pressed him.
"Wait until you get here, and you'll see," retorted Dave.
"You're not hurt?" Dick shouted.
"No; but my feelings are!" vented Darrin indignantly.
Another minute and the trio headed by Dick, reached the spot.
By this time darkness was coming on through the woods. Prescott,
who was in the lead, at first received the impression that Dave
was standing beside a tree. And so Dave was, though the reason
for his standing there was yet to be explained.
A moment more and Tom and Dick had reached the spot where the
wrathful Darrin was standing.
"Well, of all the-----" began Tom wonderingly.
"Outrages!" finished Darry angrily.
Prescott laughed outright.
"I suppose I must be a comical-looking object," admitted Dave
Darrin ruefully. "But just wait until I lay my hands on the rascal
who played this trick on me! Oh, I'll make him ache for his
smartness.
