CHAPTER X 

A SCENE IN A CEMETERY 

"Hurrah, Fred Garrison says he will go with us!" cried Sam, two days later. "I have just received a telegram from him. He says he will come on to-morrow." 

"And here is word from Songbird Powell," put in Dick. "He will go, too. He is to meet us at Pittsburg, any time I say." 

"And Hans Mueller will go," said Tom. "That makes three of our friends to start with. I hope the Lanings and the Stanhopes go." 

"So do I," answered Dick, who could not get that talk with Dora in the hallway of the hotel out of his head. 

Sam was anxious to meet Fred Garrison, and on the following afternoon drove down to the railroad station at Oak Run to greet his chum. 

The train was late, and after finding this out Sam took a walk around the village to see what changes had been made during the past few months. But Oak Run was a slow place and he look in vain for improvements. 

"Guess I'll have my hair cut while I am here," he said to himself, and started to enter the only barber shop of which the railroad village boasted. 

As he pushed open the door a young fellow got out of one of the chairs and paid the barber what was coming to him. Then he reached for his hat and started to leave. 

"Lew Flapp!" ejaculated Sam. "Is it possible?" 

The bully of Putnam Hall whirled around and gave a start. He had not dreamed of meeting one of the Rovers. 
did he go back to the train station after?
