Are you two bound for the Klondike?
gpt
Of course, was Roland's sharp reply.
human
What else would we be doing up here?
gpt
What started you--the fact that we were going?
human
Well, I allow as that had a little to do with it, Earl; but Guardley got a letter from a friend of his who is up there now--a man named Stephens. He said Guardley ought to come up at once, and as he didn't want to go alone, I came along. How are you making out?
gpt
We are doing very well.
human
You and your brother came on with your uncle, didn't you?
gpt
Yes.
human
Any others in the party?
gpt
Yes; two men.
human
Me and Guardley have been havin' rather a hard road of it, all alone, he went on.
gpt
We've been thinking of joining forces with somebody.
human
Well, our crowd is complete,
gpt
Then you won't consider taking in two more, providing, of course, we do our share of work and pay our share of the expenses.
human
I don't think so, Roland.
gpt
Who is at the head of your party?
human
Nobody in particular; we all work together.
gpt
Maybe you had better speak to the boy's uncle, put in Guardley.
human
Come on.
