We wasn't goin' to hurt him none."
"Well, I don't think you will," replied Harry as Blaisdell set off
toward the camp of the Hilltop boys, knowing that the two would be
able to take care of the men.
"How did you men get the idea that your farms were going to be
injured?" asked Arthur. "Who gave you that notion?"
"Bill said so," replied one.
"Who is Bill? Is he the big man that did the most of the talking
just now? He does not look as if he knew very much."
"Yes, Bill's a big feller."
"Well, Bill had better study up a bit before he goes to making
trouble for people. Where is his farm, anyhow? Has he got one?"
"Ah, you talk too much!" growled the man as he walked toward the

Shortly after the return of Harry and Arthur Blaisdell, a dozen
boys came running in, the former saying:
"Here we are, boys. The doctor is coming as fast as he can. You
have not had any fight since I went away? Young Smith got there
ahead of me and some of the boys had already started before I got
there, so I did not go all the way, but came back with them to see
the fun."
Dr. Wise, all in black and wearing big spectacles came up soon and
asked Percival and Jack who were the men who had made the trouble
at the branch.
