Midnight
What shall we be called ? '' Several names were proposed , but they did not suit Charles . At length , one of the boys inquired , `` What name would you like ? '' `` I think that ` Midnight Rangers ' would be a good name for us , '' answered Charles . `` That 's a splendid name ! '' `` Now , '' continued Charles , `` we must change our plan of operations a little . We must give up the idea of thrashing the Hillers for awhile , because there are not enough of us ; but I should like it , if we could go to work and whip every one of those fellows that stuck up for Lee Powell to-night , especially Frank Nelson .
