I looked, and away up through all the trestle work, I could see a head move back into the car at the top. The big axle of the wheel was right between our car and that other one and it hid part of the car. It seemed as if that person up there had been peeking at us and drew in his head quickly so as not to be seen. I saw this much, that he had a cap on. "Did you see?" I whispered to Westy. "Sure I did," he said. "That was no baseball target." "Baseball target?" the kid whispered, all excited. "That's the bandit; _now_ we've got him." Dorry said, "Don't look up again; don't let him think we saw him. He had a cap on. Did you see?" "I suppose I'll have to climb up there and shoot him," Warde Hollister said. "You sit where you are," I told him. I knew he was only joking but I saw that was no time for fooling and I was afraid he might spoil everything. "You could never climb up there," I said. "Anyway, _this_ is no false alarm. I saw him as plain as day." "So did I," Westy whispered. Hunt and Will said they thought they had seen him too, but they weren't sure because they had been seeing everything on account of being so dizzy. Westy said, "Don't talk loud, remember sound ascends." I made believe I was looking all around at the sky and I stole a look up that way again. Just as I did I saw a kind of a movement. I kind of knew that the person away up there in that car was watching us and sticking his head out as much as he dared. Westy said, "We don't know whether it's the bandit or not, but whoever it is, we've got him. He'd break his neck jumping from up there. He couldn't get hold of the trestle on either side of the car. That car must have been down here when we came along. Whoever it is, we've got him as sure as if we had handcuffs on him." "We've _foiled_ him," the kid whispered. "You said boys never capture bandits and things except in books. _Now_ you see." Westy said, "Well, we've sure got him, and believe me, that's a new way to capture a bandit." "It shows that scouts are resourceful," Pee-wee said. I said, "Sure, they're so resourceful they capture bandits without knowing it. We don't even know if he is a bandit." "We know we've got him. Isn't that enough?" the kid said.
