Are you there, Tom!

Dick! Oh, is it really you?

Yes, it is I, was the reply.

How many are there with you, Tom? Is father there?

No, Dick, father isn't here. Come down and free us, quick! eagerly.

There are twelve of us here, it is a terrible place,-slimy and foul-smelling, and there are rats, insects and worms, ugh!

Climb up the ladder, instructed Dick.

Surely you are not bound.

Our hands are tied. That's what I meant by telling you to come down and free us, Dick.

I'll be with you in moment, Tom.
