Pete contented himself with buying a new Stetson for Sheriff Owen to be delivered after Pete had left town. Next morning, long before the inhabitants of Sanborn had thrown back their blankets, Pete was saddling Blue Smoke, frankly amazed that the pony had shown no evidence of his erstwhile early-morning activities.

"My other novel," Hewet continued, "is about a young man who is obsessed by an idea the idea of being a gentleman. He manages to exist at Cambridge on a hundred pounds a year. He has a coat; it was once a very good coat. But the trousers they're not so good.
