The
next
instant
Martin
was
seated
on
the
edge
of
the
bed
with
the
cub
face
downward
across
his
knees
.
"
Now
don
’
t
bite
,
"
Martin
warned
,
"
or
else
I
’
ll
have
to
punch
your
face
.
It
would
be
a
pity
,
for
it
is
such
a
pretty
face
.
"
His
uplifted
hand
descended
,
and
thereafter
rose
and
fell
in
a
swift
and
steady
rhythm
.
The
cub
struggled
and
cursed
and
squirmed
,
but
did
not
offer
to
bite
.
Brissenden
looked
on
gravely
,
though
once
he
grew
excited
and
gripped
the
whiskey
bottle
,
pleading
,
"
Here
,
just
let
me
swat
him
once
.
"
"
Sorry
my
hand
played
out
,
"
Martin
said
,
when
at
last
he
desisted
.
"
It
is
quite
numb
.
"
He
uprighted
the
cub
and
perched
him
on
the
bed
.
"
I
’
ll
have
you
arrested
for
this
,
"
he
snarled
,
tears
of
boyish
indignation
running
down
his
flushed
cheeks
.
"
I
’
ll
make
you
sweat
for
this
.
You
’
ll
see
.
"
"
The
pretty
thing
,
"
Martin
remarked
.
"
He
doesn
’
t
realize
that
he
has
entered
upon
the
downward
path
.
It
is
not
honest
,
it
is
not
square
,
it
is
not
manly
,
to
tell
lies
about
one
’
s
fellow
-
creatures
the
way
he
has
done
,
and
he
doesn
’
t
know
it
.
"
"
He
has
to
come
to
us
to
be
told
,
"
Brissenden
filled
in
a
pause
.
"
Yes
,
to
me
whom
he
has
maligned
and
injured
.
My
grocery
will
undoubtedly
refuse
me
credit
now
.
The
worst
of
it
is
that
the
poor
boy
will
keep
on
this
way
until
he
deteriorates
into
a
first
-
class
newspaper
man
and
also
a
first
-
class
scoundrel
.
"
"
But
there
is
yet
time
,
"
quoth
Brissenden
.
"
Who
knows
but
what
you
may
prove
the
humble
instrument
to
save
him
.
Why
didn
’
t
you
let
me
swat
him
just
once
?
I
’
d
like
to
have
had
a
hand
in
it
.
"
