Tom and Mike pulled the safety rope bit by bit, trying to pull Jake…

- Tom shrugged. By this time, Jake had made more than a dozen footholds. He smiled at Tom and said, "Brother, come!" Tom and Mike stepped forward and lifted Jake with their hands.

He felt around in his arms and really took out another certificate of deposit, also asking to change it to a three - month fixed - term deposit.
