Excerpt: ..."Come on!" cried Nellie Parks. "I'm going to run!" "So am I!" added Grace Lavine. "Oh, it may chase us!" In fright the children turned, Freddie looking back at the spot where he thought he had seen the snake. CHAPTER XI DANNY'S TRICK Nan Bobbsey stood for a moment, she hardly knew why. Perhaps she wanted to see the big snake of which Freddie spoke. It certainly was not because she liked reptiles. Then she thought she saw something long and black wiggling toward her, and, with a little exclamation of fright, she, too, turned to follow the others. But, as she did so, she saw their dog Snap come running up the hill, barking and wagging his tail. He seemed to have lost the children for a moment and to be telling them how glad he was that he had found them again. Straight up the hill, toward where Freddie had said the snake was, rushed Snap.
