Why are you doing that?
gpt
We shall know it when we see it again. Furthermore, it will be of use to any person who may chance to be looking for us. I am going to stick like a brother to that blazed tree until I find a better place. Unpack and help me make camp.

I will make a lean-to while you are getting the camp in shape. Wait! Tad's voice was sharp, causing Stacy to halt suddenly.

I hear water. There is a stream near here. Yes, there it is. Hurrah!

I don't see anything in a little stream of water to get excited about,
gpt
I do. It means there is a larger body of water somewhere hereabouts. You take the ponies and follow me. I am going to blaze a way down that stream for a piece anyway and see where it leads. We can't be any worse off farther down than we are here, and perhaps we may be able to better ourselves materially.
