a baseball were not interesting, further than the use of the clubs on each

declined to run farther and butted the breath from Malcolm's small body
until it had to be shaken in again. They ran amuck and on finding they
were not pursued, gave up, stopping on the bank of a creek. There they
espied tiny shining fish swimming through the water and plunged in to try
to capture them. When Mr. Tower and William came up, both boys were busy
chasing fish.
