Caddy Buddy books

? ? ? ? So what wonder that the little boy was quite at a loss to guess the meaning of these strange figures.

? ? ? ? Near the middle of the book he found his old enemy, Sabor, the lioness, and further on, coiled Histah, the snake.

? ? ? ? Oh, it was most engrossing! Never before in all his ten years had he enjoyed anything so much. So absorbed was he that he did not note the approaching dusk, until it was quite upon him and the figures were blurred.

? ? ? ? He put the book back in the cupboard and closed the door, for he did not wish anyone else to find and destroy his treasure, and as he went out into the gathering darkness he closed the great door of the cabin behind him as it had been before he discovered the secret of its lock, but before he left he had noticed the hunting knife lying where he had thrown it upon the floor, and this he picked up and took with him to show to his fellows.

? ? ? ? He had taken scarce a dozen steps toward the jungle when a great form rose up before him from the shadows of a low bush.
