"Oh, my!" exclaimed one girl. "Oh, mine!" amended another. "Oh, ours!" called out a third. Then there was one awful bump, and the chorus was understood. The old-style hay wagon, which was like a big crib, wobbled from side to side. The young ladies followed its questionable example, and some of them "sort of" lapped-over on the others. "Dorothy Dale!" gasped one particularly sensitive member of the party, "we thought when you vouched for this affair that it would turn out all right!" "But it hasn't turned out anything yet," replied Dorothy, "although we all came pretty near it—that time." She clasped her hand around one of the braces of the hayrick, evidently determined that should she be "turned out" her arm would be responsible. "That's just like you, Nita Brant," declared Tavia Travers, the latter really being manager of the occasion. "When I go to work, and hire a car like this, and especially stipulate that the ride shall be—rural—you kick on the bumps." But scarcely had she uttered these words, when a "bump" came, with neither time nor opportunity for Nita's "kick." In fact, it was remarkable that the old hay wagon did not actually carry out its threat, to roll over in the direction toward which it wobbled.

Lilian C. McNamara, better known as Lilian C. Garis was a United States writer who scribbled innumerable works of children’s stories. Before becoming a writer, she was a broadcaster for the Newark Evening News in New Jersey. For the Stratemeyer Syndicate she composed using the pen name Margaret Penrose and Laura Lee Hope, with her books containing many of the first stories in the series of Bobbsey Twins along with the series of Dorothy Dale. But Mrs. Garis also composed a few pieces using her real name. Her husband, Howard Roger Garis was also a Syndicate scriber and DJ on WNJR. Her kids Roger and Cleo also authored children’s stories.

So the parties separated and then Dorothy was free to leave her hiding place. She longed to tell her friends the strange story, but she knew that the finding of Tavia was the one and only thing to be thought of just then. "Are you sure that this is the direction in which the boys went?" asked Nat, with something like a sigh. Dorothy looked over the rough woodland. "No," she said, "there was a swamp, for I distinctly remember that they picked their way through tall grass, and about here the grass is actually dried up."
