When they were gone, Cynthia and Joyce turned and looked long and
incredulously into each other's eyes. They _might_ have made, on this
occasion, a number of high-flown and appropriate remarks, the tenor of
which would be easy to imagine. Certainly the time for it was ripe, and
beyond a doubt they _felt_ them! But, as a matter of fact, they indulged
in nothing of the sort. Instead, Joyce suddenly broke into a laugh.
"We'll never have to go in there by the cellar window again!" she
remarked.
"Sure enough!" agreed Cynthia. "What a relief that'll be!"
And so ended the adventure of the Boarded-up House!
