You could stay at my sister's house."
"That would be jolly!" cried Shep. He loved his aunt and knew she
would make him and his chums welcome.
"I guess I can stay---anyway, I'll find out," answered Snap; and
Giant and Whopper said the same.
Little did any of the boys dream of what strange happenings that visit
to Railings was to bring forth.
CHAPTER III
A LESSON IN PHOTOGRAPHY
By consulting a time-table the boys found that a train for Railings
left at ten minutes after eight in the morning. The distance to the
city was thirty-three miles and the run on the country railroad took
the best part of an hour and a quarter.
Snap, Whopper and Giant were on hand ten minutes before train time.
They found the doctor's son ahead of them, and he had tickets for all.
"Well, how did you make out at home?" was the question asked by
several, and then it was learned that all had had an easy time of it
persuading their parents to let them go on the proposed outing to the
Windy Mountains.
"My folks told me to beware of ghosts," said Snap with a grin.
