Did he catch any glimpse of himself making a show of Bitzer to strangers, as the rising young man, so devoted to his master's great merits, who had won young Tom's place, and had almost captured young Tom himself, in the times when by various rascals he was spirited away?
'Yes, ma'am, returned Bitzer, 'if that's worth the money. 'Besides which, ma'am, resumed Bitzer, while he was polishing the table, 'he looks to me as if he gamed.

The marauders had gone up the narrow stairway into the kitchen, first lashing one end of a leather halter-strap about the knob of Bitzer's door and the other to the base of the big refrigerator, a needless precaution, as it took sustained and determined effort, as many a sentry on Number 5 could testify, to rouse Bitzer from even a nap.
'Because they are improvident, said Mrs. Sparsit. 'Yes, ma'am, returned Bitzer, 'that's where it is. If they were more provident and less perverse, ma'am, what would they do?

I have suspected young Mr. Tom of this bank-robbery from the first. I had had my eye upon him before that time, for I knew his ways.

'I supposed so, from their all appearing to keep away from you. Mr. Bounderby wants to speak to you. You know his house, don't you? Stephen said 'Yes, again.
'Her calling seems to be pretty well known among 'em, observed Mr. Bounderby. 'You'd have had the whole school peeping in a row, in a week. 'Truly, I think so, returned his friend. 'Bitzer, turn you about and take yourself home. Jupe, stay here a moment. Let me hear of your running in this manner any more, boy, and you will hear of me through the master of the school.
