In spite of noise and heedlessness there was something fine and true about Billy; something that made old Bouncer whine when left behind; something that called the kittens to rub against his legs; that made the little children at school adore him, and men and women smile heartily when they greeted him. It was this mysterious something that brought a wan smile to the small tired face and tired eyes that looked confidingly into his blue ones. He lifted her carefully down from the carriage, and led her up the walk to where his mother and sister came to meet them. “Singe my hair ef I do, let’s hev some more doin’s,” rebelled Moses.

They had the generous dimensions allowed by an imaginative and economical mind that could look into the future and could see legs lengthening and a general expansion.

The dingy greenish-grey coat that slouched from Moses’ shoulders did not fail to heighten the effect, but seemed to set the costume in italics. “Ugh! Confound their impudence, I’ll make them listen yet to something else than rag.” “They’re great frauds, those aristocratic cats of sister’s,” Billy explained; “not a bit of use.
