As the children left the school-house, Betty was met by Job. He appeared to be headed for a point at an angle of about forty-five degrees from his mistress, but it was only his corner-wise way of walking, caused by his defective eye. Notwithstanding his seemingly erratic course he reached Betty’s side and thrust his head into the pocket of her small pinafore. He found there what put him into high good humor.

“Well, he ain’t dead; he’s alive and bully, with a wad that bulges. I’m going to take you to him.” Just then he saw a wagon in the distance rounding the curve of the mountain. This was his minute.
