. 1 * “ *fttr th’
land robber* had stolen our
»old that Rangy, my kan­
garoo pal, ana I M t out
through th’ Jungle to cap­
ture ’em, and to recover
our gold that we had wash-
ed out of th' river gravel.
For two day« we followed
th* trail of those ding-bust­
ed rascals. One afternoon,
as we were forcin’ our way
through th’ thick jungle, we
were brought up standin’
by a loud haw-haw-haw.
Makin* no more noise
than a couple o’ greased
snakes, Rangy and I slipped
through th' tangle of vines
and
creepers, expectin’
every minute to catch sight
of th ’ thieves. Then, right
over my head, that crasy
haw-haw-haw started again.
I »looked up. and there,
perched, on th’ limb of a
tree and givin’ me th’ merry
a, was a kookaburra, a
rd of th’ jungle that
laughs like a man.
Just then, from behind a
3
thicket of trees, came t lf
sound of gruff voices. Once
more Rangy and I started
creepln’ through th* Jungle.
I was sure we were close to
th’ robbers.
Peerin’ through th’ leaves,
we saw th’ two men we
were after sittln’ near th’
stump of a tree, dividin’
th’ gold.
With a long rope that I
had with me 1 made a
lasso, then slipped around
l>ehind th’ rascals, and be­
fore you could say Jack
Robinson 1 flipped th* loop
over ’em and th’ stump and
soon had ’em tied up good.
Later, when we turned
th’ robbers over to th*
police of a nearby town, we
found out that one of ’em
was Ramura Jack, a des­
perate outlaw, with a re­
ward of two thousand dol­
lars for his capture.
So
you see, Rangy and I not*
only recovered th’ gold, but
also got th* reward.
