All Aboard; or, Life on the Lake

CHAPTER XVII
5/11

By its aid he obtained a very correct idea of their encampment.

The Rovers were at dinner, and he recognized Charles Hardy and several of his companions.

The glass was taken by several of the party; and, after this examination, even Mr.Hardy concluded that it was best to make a merit of necessity, and let the foolish boys have out their frolic.
