When the ball came out he was on all fours, and the Ripton exponent, finding to his great satisfaction that he had not been tackled, whipped the ball out on the left, where a wing three-quarter hovered. This was the man Rand-Brown was supposed to be marking, and once again did Barry's substitute prove of what stuff his tackling powers were made.
He was not an orderly member of the house, certainly, and on several occasions Milton had found it necessary to drop on him heavily for creating disturbances. But he was not the sort that bears malice. He took it all in the way of business, and came up smiling after it was over. No, everything pointed to Rand-Brown.
A crowd, made up of members of various houses, was pushing to get past another crowd which was trying to get out. The "public-school tea at one shilling" appeared to have proved attractive. "Look at 'em," said Dunstable. "Sordid beasts! All they care about is filling themselves. There goes that man Merrett. Rand-Brown with him. Here come four more. Come on. It makes me sick."
The Wrykyn defence, with the exception of Rand-Brown, was too good to be penetrated, while the Ripton forwards, by always getting the ball in the scrums, kept them from attacking.
Milton's study was wrecked "with the compliments of the League". Trevor had turned him out of the first fifteen. Trevor's study was wrecked "with the compliments of the League". As Clowes had pointed out, the man with the most obvious motive for not wishing Barry to play for the school was Rand-Brown. It seemed a true bill.
Rand-Brown was miles the heaviest by a stone, I should think and he was taller and had a longer reach. But O'Hara looked much fitter. Rand-Brown looked rather flabby. "I sang out 'Time' through the wire netting, and they started off at once. O'Hara offered to shake hands, but Rand-Brown wouldn't. So they began without it. "The first round was awfully fast.
He and Milton had never got on well together, and quite recently they had quarrelled openly over the former's play in the Day's match. Rand-Brown must be the man. But Milton was sensible enough to feel that so far he had no real evidence whatever. He must wait. On the following afternoon Seymour's turned out to play Donaldson's.
Am I right in thinking Rand-Brown was the other partner?" Silence from Ruthven. "Am I?" persisted Clowes. "You may think what you like. I don't care." "Now we're getting rude again," complained Clowes. "Was Rand-Brown in this?" "Yes," said Ruthven. "Thought so. And who else?" "No one." "Try again." "I tell you there was no one else. Can't you believe a word a chap says?"
"Rather sensational." "Milton and Allardyce both thought he deserved it. If he'd been playing instead of Rand-Brown, they wouldn't have scored at all probably, and we should have got one more try." "That's all right," said Clowes. "He deserves it right enough, and I'm jolly glad you've given it him. But things will begin to move now, don't you think?
Even supposing he had not suspected Rand-Brown, he would never have dreamed of suspecting Ruthven. They had been friends. Not very close friends Trevor's keenness for games and Ruthven's dislike of them prevented that but a good deal more than acquaintances. He was so constituted that he could not grasp the frame of mind required for such an action as Ruthven's.
