Mrs. Maloney's fifth interruption about the door of her tent, and her further pointed observation that it was past nine o'clock, set us lighting lanterns and putting the fire out for safety. MISSUS MALONEY'S FIFTH INTERRUPTION ABOUT THE DOOR OF HER TENT AND HER FURTHER POINTED OBSERVATION THAT IT WAS PAST NINE O'CLOCK SET US LIGHTING LANTERNS AND PUTTING THE FIRE OUT FOR SAFETY
 We saw the glow of the fire up among the trees on the ridge, and his shadow moving about as he threw on more wood. "There you are!" he called aloud. "Good again! Been setting the night-lines, eh? Capital! And your mother's still fast asleep, Joan." His cheery laugh floated across the water; he had not been in the least disturbed by our absence, for old campers are not easily alarmed. "Now, remember," he went on, after we had told our little tale of travel by the fire, and Mrs. Maloney had asked for the fourth time exactly where her tent was and whether the door faced east or south, "every one takes their turn at cooking breakfast, and one of the men is always out at sunrise to catch it first. Hubbard, I'll toss you which you do in the morning and which I do!" He lost the toss. "Then I'll catch it," I said, laughing at his discomfiture, for I knew he loathed stirring porridge. "And mind you don't burn it as you did every blessed time last year on the Volga," I added by way of reminder. LEASANT TO HEAR AND UNDENIABLY WHOLESOME WE SAW THE GLOW OF THE FIRE UP AMONG THE TREES ON THE RIDGE AND HIS SHADOW MOVING ABOUT AS HE THREW ON MORE WOOD THERE YOU ARE HE CALLED ALOUD GOOD AGAIN BEEN SETTING THE NIGHT LINES EH CAPITAL AND YOUR MOTHER'S STILL FAST ASLEEP JOAN HIS CHEERY LAUGH FLOATED ACROSS THE WATER HE HAD NOT BEEN IN THE LEAST DISTURBED BY OUR ABSENCE FOR OLD CAMPERS ARE NOT EASILY ALARMED NOW REMEMBER HE WENT ON AFTER WE HAD TOLD OUR LITTLE TALE OF TRAVEL BY THE FIRE AND MISSUS MALONEY HAD ASKED FOR THE FOURTH TIME EXACTLY WHERE HER TENT WAS AND WHETHER THE DOOR FACED EAST OR SOUTH EVERYONE TAKES THEIR TURN AT COOKING BREAKFAST AND ONE OF THE MEN IS ALWAYS OUT AT SUNRISE TO CATCH IT FIRST HUBBARD I'LL TOSS YOU WHICH YOU DO IN THE MORNING AND WHICH I DO HE LOST THE TOSS THEN I'LL CATCH IT I SAID LAUGHING AT HIS DISCOMFITURE FOR I KNEW HE LOATHED STIRRING PORRIDGE AND MIND YOU DON'T BURN IT AS YOU DID EVERY BLESSED TIME LAST YEAR ON THE VOLGA I ADDED BY WAY OF REMINDER
