Excerpt from A Yankee Lad's Pluck: How Bert Larkin Saved His Father's Ranch in the Island of Porto Rico Yes, sir, the clerk answered respectfully, and waited for Mr. Thompson's next word. Well, hurry it up as fast as you can! Barker has gone over to Flanders with the other wagon, and you will have to make the north trip today. This was so common an occurrence the lad thought nothing of it. Thompson had a regular habit of crowding double work upon his men, so he only answered: All right, sir; I'll be back in two hours, or thereabouts, and then he jumped into the vehicle and drove rapidly away.
