Mine's Jack Young, said the other scout.
gpt
I say, you don't talk like an Englishman?
human
I'm not, explained Harry.
gpt
I'm American. But I'm for England just now--and we were caught here trying to find out something about that place.
human
I got an idea of what you were after--you two, he said.
gpt
The other one's English, isn't he?
human
Dick Mercer? Yes! said Harry, astonished.
gpt
But how did you find out about us?
human
Stalked you, said Jack, happily.
gpt
Oh, I'm no end of a scout! I followed you as soon as I caught you without your bicycles.
human
We must have been pretty stupid to let you do it, though, said Harry, a little crestfallen.
gpt
I'm glad we did, but suppose you'd been an enemy! A nice fix we'd have been in!
human
That's just what I thought about you, admitted Jack.

You see, everyone has sort of laughed at me down here because I said there might be German spies about. I've always been suspicious of the people who took Bray Park. They didn't act the way English people do. They didn't come to church, and when the pater--I told you he was the vicar here, didn't I?--went to call, they wouldn't let him in! Just sent word they were out! Fancy treating the vicar like that!
