a dilettante spirit at Hall’s legs. "Come along with those
boxes," he said. "I’ve been waiting long enough."
And he came down the steps towards the tail of the cart

No sooner had Fearenside’s dog caught sight of him,
however, than it began to bristle and growl savagely, and
when he rushed down the steps it gave an undecided
