But, as it developed, nothing could have been more opportune than Tom's action, for word of his quenching a bigger blaze than he would have had to encounter in the official test reached the Denton fire department.
As a result there was a conference, and, after only a nominal showing of his apparatus, it was adopted by a unanimous vote.
But this occurred some time afterward, for, following his rescue of Mary Nestor and her uncle and the saving of the lives of Field and Melling, as well as others in the building, by his prompt smothering of the fire, Tom returned to Shopton.
He and his companions went in the Lucifer, minus, now, the big load of chemicals, and on landing near the hangar Tom was surprised to see Koku the giant running toward him. The big man showed every symptom of great excitement as he cried:
"Oh, Master Tom! He see the light ob day! he see the light ob day now!
Oh, so glad! So glad!"
"Who sees the light of day?" asked the young inventor.
"Black Rad! Eradicate! Him eyes all better now! Pill man take off cloth. Rad--he see light ob day!"
"Oh, I'm so glad! So thankful!" cried Tom. "How I've wished for this!
Is it really true, Koku?"
"Sure true! Pill man say Rad see K O now." The giant, doubtless, meant "O K," but Tom understood. And it was true, as he learned more directly a little later.
When Tom entered the room where Rad had been kept in the dark ever since the explosion, the colored man looked at his master with seeing eyes, though the apartment was still but dimly lighted.
"I's all right ag'in now, Ma.s.sa Tom!" cried Rad. "See fine! I's all ready to make more smellin' stuff to put out fires!"
"You won't have to, Rad!" cried Tom joyfully. "My chemical extinguisher is completed, and you did your share in making it a success. But I never would have felt like claiming credit for it if you had been--had been left in the dark."
"No mo' dark, Ma.s.sa Tom!" said Eradicate. "I kin see now as good as eber, an' yo'-all won't hab to 'pend on dat lazy good-fo'-nuffin cocoanut!" and he chuckled as he looked at the giant.
"Huh! Lazy!" retorted the big man. "I show you--black c.o.o.n!"
"By golly!" laughed Rad. "Him an' me good friends now, Ma.s.sa Tom. Neber I fuss wif Koku any mo'! He suah was good to me when I had to stay in de dark!"
Of course it would be too much to hope that Koku and Eradicate never again quarreled, but for a long time their warm friends.h.i.+p was a thing at which to marvel, considering the past.
"Well, I guess this settles it," said Tom to Ned one day, after going over the day's mail.
"Settles what, Tom?"
"My aerial fire-fighting apparatus. Here's word from the National Fire Underwriters a.s.sociation that they have adopted it, and there will be a big reduction of rates in all cities where it is a part of the fire department equipment. It's been as great a success as Mr. Baxter's new dye."
"Yes, and he has had wonderful success with that. But what are you going to do now, Tom? What new line of endeavor are you going to aim at?"
Tom arose and reached for his hat.
"I am now going," he said, with a grin, "to see somebody on private business."
"You are going to see Mary Nestor!" broke out Ned.
"I am," said Tom.
And he did.
