These chapters are about Prince Brat and Jemmy getting snatched by Cutwater and Hold-Your-Nose Billy. Prince Brat and Jemmy were captured in Chapter 5 and Cutwater and Hold-Your-Nose Billy were trying to decide how much the Prince and Jemmy would be worth in gold.
Cutwater and Hold-Your-Nose Billy took them to their secret hideout in the forest. Because Jemmy could write, and Prince Brat could not write, Cutwater and Hold-Your-Nose Billy (Billy) thought that Jemmy was the Prince and Prince Brat was the whipping boy. Cutwater and Billy decide that if the King is going to get the Prince and his whipping boy back, the King is going to have to pay a ransome. Cutwater and Billy decide to write a ransome note. Neither one of them can writer, so they ask Jemmy to write the note.
Before the villians can send Prince Brat to the King with the ransome note, they left the room for a few minutes and let the boys cool off, because they were angry with each other. This is because the villians thougtht that Jemmy was the Prince, and this made the Prince angry. Jemmy reveals his plan to the Prince to escape, which is that Jemmy will hide in the hay pile. The Prince will tell the villians that Jemmy ran off and when they search for Jemmy, Jemmy and the Prince will have their chance to escape.
Because he is angry, the Prince refuses to work with the plan. When Cutwater and Billy come back the Prince reveals exactly where Jemmy is hiding. This is where chapter 10 ends.
