90 The Cruise of the Canoe Club.
As it would have taken three days to send the ca- noes to Rouse's Point by freight, the canoeists were compelled to take them on the same train with them- selves. They went to the express office on Monday morning and tried to make a bargain with the ex- press company. The agent astonished them by the enormous price which he demanded, and Harry, who acted as spokesman for the expedition, told him that it was outrageous to ask such a price for carrying four light ...canoes.
The man turned to a book in which were con- tained the express company's rates of charges, and showed Harry that there was a fixed rate for row- boats and shells.
" But, " said Harry, " a canoe is not a row-boat nor a shell. What justice is there in charging as much for a fourteen-foot canoe as for a forty-foot shell 2" "Well, " said the agent, "I dunno as it would be fair. But, then, these canoes of yours are pretty near as big as row-boats. " " A canoe loaded as ours are don't weigh over one A Disappointment.
