A wisp of grass dangled from his mouth; his ears pricked forward. Perhaps something in the boy's voice recalled a voice he had known far back along his checkered life, when he was a colt and a bare-legged youngster fed him sugar and rode astride his back.,"No such luck. But look here, I never suffered such agony as I did in that laurel. It's the last tree I'll ever climb. I knew if I got down they would never forgive me to their dying day, and as I was I felt like a condemned criminal.","Of the Norfolk Fellowes?" enquired Captain Acton, after bows and smiles had been exchanged.,Elinor merely shook her head gently, while Griffin stood in embarrassed silence.，"How was it David saw the crime committed?"，The insinuation fell harmless, as far as the young professor was concerned.，CHAPTER XVI THE ESCAPE“Awfully hard, Billy. Some of them had ‘grief swimming in their eyes.’”
