The boys thanked Jonas for getting up the money, and then they asked him to keep both pieces for them until they went home.The bark began to blaze up very bright, sending out volumes of thick smoke bar main street and dense flame, writhing, and curling, and snapping, as it lay on the ground.So he took a small box about as large as a raisin box, which he found in the barn, and laid it down on its side, so as to turn the open side towards the trap, and then moved the trap close up to it.It would be a good plan, bar main street said Jonas, to mark him in some way, but he might gnaw off the riband.James soon after went home, and Rollo sat down in the parlor to his reading.He pressed some bar main street of this with his knife on the end of the stick.What shall we do? said James.He said he was certainly a cunning little fellow, but what should we bar main street do with him if we should catch him? O, said Rollo, we would put him in a little cage.Then he said he would open the trap a very little, and let Rollo peep in.Rollo came back bar main street with the permission granted, and they all set off Rollo and James running on eagerly before.There, said Jonas, that will burn some time now you may light your torches from that.The boys all ran around, outside, and were just in time to catch a glimpse of him, running along on the top of the fence, down towards bar main street the woods again.James, however, had the half dollar, and would not give it up and so Rollo went to Jonas, and told him that James had got his half dollar.Of course he knew that from the barn chamber window he could see bar main street the trap, though it would be too far off to see it plain.
