“His tail’s druv in too far fer to waggle much though,” returned Moses eyeing the diminutive stump. The inexorable portrait on the wall seemed to gaze down on the recalcitrant youth with disapproval. Armed with the big baskets, several young men of the party travelled from bench to bench, followed by others with coffee pots.
