This remark on the conduct of one of our companions whom we had known, under more favourable circumstances, had cost us some pain in the first edition: therefore, we did not expressly name the person meant. When we now name Mr. Griffon, we conceive ourselves to be fulfilling a duty, which his present sentiments impose on us.
At the sight of the ribbons they forgot for a moment their pain, but unhappily, Sergeant Legendre did not long survive his injury, though Griffon recovered and was sent back to France, where I saw him some years later in Les Invalides.
The Griffon Basset is a hound with a hard bristly coat, and short, crooked legs. It has never found great favour here. The Lane hounds are derived from the kennels of M. Lane, of Franqueville, Baos, Seine-Inferieure, and are also very little appreciated in this country. They are a lemon and white variety, with torse or bent legs.
He is told plainly that, being admitted out of charity, he becomes henceforth a part of the experimental domain of the doctor, and that patient and malady must serve as subjects of study and observation, analysis, or instruction, to the young students who accompany assiduously the visits of M. Griffon.
These craft are of two kinds, one shaped like a horse- trough, the other with a lean and snaky head.

With a swift movement of her hand she swept the poor little creature, as if it had been a noxious insect, yards away. "Carlotta!" I cried angrily, springing to my feet. The ladies who owned the beast rushed to their whining pet and looked astonished daggers at Carlotta.
Besides, it's in 'Through the Looking Glass. We could have the Griffon, though, and then, there's the Duchess, the King, the Queen, and the Mad Hatter. I'd love to do the Mad Hatter." Elfreda paused, eyeing the little group quizzically. "I think that's a brilliant idea, Elfreda!" exclaimed Grace warmly. "Great!" exulted three or four girls, in lively chorus.
