Jerry had dropped off to sleep with his jaws closing drowsily on Nicky's arm. When it moved his hind legs kicked at it and tore. "He's dreaming when he does that," said Nicky. "He thinks he's a panther and I'm buffaloes." Mr. Parsons laughed at him. "Nicky and his cat!" he said. Nicky didn't care. Mr. Parsons was always ragging him. The tutor preferred dogs himself.
"If you mean the way they got back at us for ragging Miss Dean, I think that was simply disgraceful in them to call a meeting as they did and blacken our standing at Wayland Hall. It is a wonder we managed to keep our rooms at the Hall after all the row they made about a little bit of ragging." "We kept them, just the same, and you may thank Joan and I for it," significantly reminded Leslie.
I expect you're smiling to read after one week of my staying here three years! But I assure you that the moment I sat down to supper on the evening of my arrival I felt at home. I think at first they all thought I was an eager young Ritualist, but when they found that they didn't get any rises out of ragging me, they shut up. This house is a most extraordinary place.
Was it you who ragged Trevor's study?" "Yes," said Ruthven. "Thought so." "Why, of course, I met you just outside," said Trevor, speaking for the first time. "You were the chap who told me what had happened." Ruthven said nothing. "The ragging of the study seems to have been all the active work he did," remarked Clowes. "No," said Trevor, "he posted the letters, whether he wrote them or not.
They annoyed me, because I wasn't expecting any such trick. I never played worse. We are four points behind. It's principally my fault, too. All we can do with dignity to ourselves is to try not to notice their ragging during the second half." "Queer kind of ragging," sputtered Janet Baird. "If they'd say mean things we'd know better how to take them.
He entered. Never before had he seen disorder on such a generous scale. He looked round. "Mr Trundle er what er set is this?" "The extra French set, Headmaster." The Chief half smiled. He walked out without another word. Next term there was no extra French set. The ragging of Trundle, however, was merely regarded relaxation from the serious business of life.
Pull your chair up to the fire and I'll tell you all about it. It was really quite a joke." "No doubt it will be news to you that I used to know Kitty years ago, before either you or I came to California. All the time that you fellows were ragging me about being an old bachelor, I knew my own mind and meant to marry Kitty some day. I don't think you knew her people, the Draytons.
That Bill should be delayed twice within ten days was unheard-of and outrageous. When the hoots and cheers subsided, Warde held up his hand. He smiled, and his chin stuck out, and his nose stuck up at an angle familiar to those who had scaled peaks in his company. In silence, the School awaited what he had to say, hoping that he might slate them, which would afford an excuse for more ragging.
Fully believing he had been mistaken, he resumed his ragging of the particular black he had picked upon. This time Harley's voice was peremptory, and Jerry came to him, his wagging tail and wriggling body all eagerness of apology, as was his rose-strip of tongue that kissed the hand of forgiveness with which Harley patted him. Next, Villa called him to her.
"He'll never succeed," said the other explosively. "Frank Heney's not that kind. He'll fight on till he drops.... But I hate to see those boughten lawyers ragging him in court." Langdon, more phlegmatic of temperament, stood the gaff with less apparent friction. Hiram Johnson gave aid now and then which was always of value.
