one o'clock Sunday morning
was all Dave could mutter , and he said it with pent-up savagery . Wherever a light showed along the country road the seekers after Greg knocked at doors . Invariably the answer was the same -- no tidings . It was after one o'clock Sunday morning when the Grammar School boys returned to their several homes , discouraged and heartsick . Of course the `` Blade '' got wind of the affair and had Len Spencer and another reporter out working on the mystery . The police , too , took a hand , though there was an absolute lack of clues upon which to work . Broad daylight came Sunday morning , and still no Greg Holmes accounted for .
