When Westy left Uncle Jeb and started toward the cabin, he was frantically trying to dope out a plan with which to rescue Artie. A hundred and one ideas had already been half-formulated in his anxious mind, but none seemed logical when he tried to think of them being put into action.
He hadn't asked Uncle Jeb's advice, not only because he thought himself quite capable, but also because he didn't wish to overtax Uncle Jeb's needed strength by asking questions. He knew one thing, and that was, that the eagles wouldn't give up their search until dark anyway. And it was better that he should get Artie out before pitch dark and get back to the cabin.
