'It"s a mighty good thing I met Mr. Perkins,' said Bob to himself, as he
rode back downtown on the street-car. 'If I hadn"t, I suppose I would
have been obliged to go to work until I could get enough money to take
me to Oklahoma, and it would have been an awful disappointment not to
find Mrs. Cameron. But it"s all right now; besides, I"m better off than
I would have been if she had been here, because I have a pass clear to
Fairfax, and her sister said her husband could only help me as far as
Kansas City.'
