Excerpt from Young Hunters of the Lake: Or Out With Rod and Gun If he does he'd better watch out, or he'll get into hot water, said Shep Reed; and then the boys separated, to get their swimming outfits and tell their folks what they proposed to do. The boys lived in the town of F airview, a coun try place, located on the Rocky River, about ten miles above a fine sheet of water called Lake Cam eron. The town boasted of a score of stores, sev eral churches, a hotel, and a neat railroad station at which, during the summer months, as high as ten trains stopped daily. On the outskirts of the town were a saw mill, 3. Barrel factory, and several other industries. To those who have read the two former books in this series, entitled, Four Boy Hunters and Guns and Snowshoes, the lads getting ready for a swim will need no special introduction. The lad called Snap was Charley Dodge, the son of one of the most influential men of that neighborhood, who was a school trustee and also part owner of the saw mill and a large summer hotel. Charley was a brave and wide-awake youth and was Often looked up to as a leader by the others. Where his nickname of Snap had originated it would be hard to say, although he was as full of snap and ginger as a shad is full of bones.
