A boy stood behind him, and looked on very quietly, holding his sled in position for another coast. "Come on," he said calmly. It was Otto Ritter, a class-mate of Cheppi, with whom he was always engaged in some little quarrel.
Otto was a tall, slender boy, about eleven years old, and not nearly of the same strength as Cheppi; but the latter had learned more than once that with hands and feet Otto was much the more skilful of the two.
