When
first
he
came
to
live
at
my
expense
,
I
never
thought
I
should
be
able
to
get
him
to
stop
long
.
I
used
to
sit
down
and
look
at
him
,
as
he
sat
on
the
rug
and
looked
up
at
me
,
and
think
:
"
Oh
,
that
dog
will
never
live
.
He
will
be
snatched
up
to
the
bright
skies
in
a
chariot
,
that
is
what
will
happen
to
him
.
"
132
But
,
when
I
had
paid
for
about
a
dozen
chickens
that
he
had
killed
;
and
had
dragged
him
,
growling
and
kicking
,
by
the
scruff
of
his
neck
,
out
of
a
hundred
and
fourteen
street
fights
;
and
had
had
a
dead
cat
brought
round
for
my
inspection
by
an
irate
female
,
who
called
me
a
murderer
;
and
had
been
summoned
by
the
man
next
door
but
one
for
having
a
ferocious
dog
at
large
,
that
had
kept
him
pinned
up
in
his
own
tool-shed
,
afraid
to
venture
his
nose
outside
the
door
for
over
two
hours
on
a
cold
night
;
and
had
learned
that
the
gardener
,
unknown
to
myself
,
had
won
thirty
shillings
by
backing
him
to
kill
rats
against
time
,
then
I
began
to
think
that
maybe
they
'd
let
him
remain
on
earth
for
a
bit
longer
,
after
all
.
133
To
hang
about
a
stable
,
and
collect
a
gang
of
the
most
disreputable
dogs
to
be
found
in
the
town
,
and
lead
them
out
to
march
round
the
slums
to
fight
other
disreputable
dogs
,
is
Montmorency
's
idea
of
"
life
"
and
so
,
as
I
before
observed
,
he
gave
to
the
suggestion
of
inns
,
and
pubs
,
and
hotels
his
most
emphatic
approbation
.

Having
thus
settled
the
sleeping
arrangements
to
the
satisfaction
of
all
four
of
us
,
the
only
thing
left
to
discuss
was
what
we
should
take
with
us
;
and
this
we
had
begun
to
argue
,
when
Harris
said
he
'd
had
enough
oratory
for
one
night
,
and
proposed
that
we
should
go
out
and
have
a
smile
,
saying
that
he
had
found
a
place
,
round
by
the
square
,
where
you
could
really
get
a
drop
of
Irish
worth
drinking
.
135
George
said
he
felt
thirsty
(
I
never
knew
George
when
he
did
n't
)
;
and
,
as
I
had
a
presentiment
that
a
little
whisky
,
warm
,
with
a
slice
of
lemon
,
would
do
my
complaint
good
,
the
debate
was
,
by
common
assent
,
adjourned
to
the
following
night
;
and
the
assembly
put
on
its
hats
and
went
out
.
136
So
,
on
the
following
evening
,
we
again
assembled
,
to
discuss
and
arrange
our
plans
.
Harris
said
:
137
"
Now
,
the
first
thing
to
settle
is
what
to
take
with
us
.
Now
,
you
get
a
bit
of
paper
and
write
down
,
J.
,
and
you
get
the
grocery
catalogue
,
George
,
and
somebody
give
me
a
bit
of
pencil
,
and
then
I
'll
make
out
a
list
.

That
's
Harris
all
over
--
so
ready
to
take
the
burden
of
everything
himself
,
and
put
it
on
the
backs
of
other
people
.

He
always
reminds
me
of
my
poor
Uncle
Podger
.
You
never
saw
such
a
commotion
up
and
down
a
house
,
in
all
your
life
,
as
when
my
Uncle
Podger
undertook
to
do
a
job
.
A
picture
would
have
come
home
from
the
frame-maker
's
,
and
be
standing
in
the
dining-room
,
waiting
to
be
put
up
;
and
Aunt
Podger
would
ask
what
was
to
be
done
with
it
,
and
Uncle
Podger
would
say
:
140
"
Oh
,
you
leave
that
to
me
.
Do
n't
you
,
any
of
you
,
worry
yourselves
about
that
.
I
'll
do
all
that
.
"
