`` I shall be only too pleased to come around , Tom ; if Judge Stone can run his car by moonlight . Tell me where the meeting is to take place . '' `` The deacons of the church have promised to let us have a room in the basement , which has a stove in it . The meeting will be at eight o'clock , sir , '' Tom informed him . `` I hope to be there and listen to what goes on , '' said the hermit . `` And after all I 'm not sorry those vicious boys thought to bombard me the way they did , since it has given me the opportunity to get acquainted with such a fine lot of lads . But I see my friend , the Judge , coming with his car , and I 'll say good-bye to you all for the present . ''
