"It's an Indian name, boys; it signifies 'Lake of Islands.' Whatever else the red men can boast of, the music of their names is unequalled. I don't know exactly how many of those islets there are, but I believe Millinokett has over two hundred of them anyhow. Our camp is on the western shore. Shall we be moving?"

Excerpt: ... ridge and valley to the foot of Mount Katahdin, which still showed grandly to the northward. "Millinokett Lake," said Cyrus, prolonging the syllables with a soft, liquid sound. "It's an Indian name, boys; it signifies 'Lake of Islands.' Whatever else the red men can boast of, the music of their names is unequalled. I don't know exactly how many of those islets there are, but I believe Millinokett has over two hundred of them anyhow. Our camp is on the western shore. Shall we be moving?"

Cyrus had arranged for the use of one during the months of October and November. Here it was that Herb Heal had engaged to await him. And as he had commissioned this famous guide to stock the camp with all such provisions as could be procured from neighboring settlements, such as flour, potatoes, pork, etc., he expected to slide into the lap of luxury. In one sense he did. When the trio, their hearts thumping with anticipation, reached the low door of the first cabin, they found it securely fastened on the outside, so that no burglar-beast could force an entrance, but easily opened by man.
