Plant's men were ostracized in every way, once they showed themselves obstinate in holding to their positions. Every man was urged to resign. Many did so.

The sporting world was through with him at last.

"Oh, well, it's not our funeral, Potty!" said Eleanor. "Shall we join the dancers?" asked Anne. "Yes, but I fear Bob will be ostracized," said Mrs. Brewster. "Serve her right!
