Old Bob goes by himself, anyway.” He made a brave though unsuccessful effort to appear as usual.“That’s great!” said Steve Whitney. “Now go ahead and spin me the whole yarn.”

David and Maurice both being absent, the one in London, and the other at Deanminster, Major Jen was compelled to dine alone. This he disliked doing, so hurrying over his dinner with all speed, he betook himself to the smoking-room, with a book.
