One by one the others rose and trailed out after him: big blue Rasper, Londesley's Lassie, Ned Hoppin's young dog; Grip and Grapple, the publican's bull-terriers; Jim Mason's Gyp, foolish and flirting even now; others there were; and last of all, waddling heavily in the rear, that scarred Amazon, the Venus. Out of the house they pattered, silent and unseen, with murder in their hearts.
We gained no end on him in the turn, and were nearly up to him as he reached the door of his humble home. He bolted in so did we. He bolted up stairs so did we. He plunged headlong into a room where was a little girl rocking a cradle so did we. Then began a wild scuffle. "Catch him! Take his cap off!" cried Bobbins. "He hasn't got a cap!" cried Rasper "butcher-boys never have!"
"I am quite ready, sir," said Jeanie. "Is my cousin going out, Mr. Archibald? then I will hae to go wi' her, no doubt. James Rasper Look to the shop, James. Mr. Archibald," pushing a jar towards him, "you take his Grace's mixture, I think. Please to fill your box, for old acquaintance' sake, while I get on my things." Mr.
Adapting my conduct to the ebbing, as I had done to the flowing, I let my arm drop limp, so as she could scarcely keep hold of it, and I wished her such a cold good-night at parting, that I keep within the bounds of truth when I characterise it as a Rasper.

The cobby, brown dog, seeming of many breeds, is from the land o' the Tykes Merry, on whom the Yorkshiremen are laying as though they loved him. And Jess, the wiry black-and-tan, is the favorite of the men of of the Derwent and Dove. Tupper's big blue Rasper is there; Londesley's Lassie; and many more too many to mention: big and small, grand and mean, smooth and rough and not a bad dog there.
And they are all eager to hear her sing and play, and to see her beautiful sketches in oil Can you sing, and play, and sketch in oil, Susan? The Montmorenci's, as I wrote to Rasper, were like the driven snow; and Susan's though I didn't like to dwell upon the idea are more like snow on the second day, in London. To be sure she will have nothing to do as Mrs. Nokes except to wash 'em.
For Red Wull, too, had seen that sad face, and, rising from his master's feet, had leapt with a roar at his enemy, toppling Jim Mason like a ninepin in the fury of his charge. In a second every dog in the room, from the battered Venus to Tupper's big Rasper, was on his feet, bristling to have at the tyrant and wipe out past injuries, if the gray dog would but lead the dance.
It holds Mrs. Nokes's sketches, I presume. Nokes. Sponge, Mr. Rasper, Mr. Robinson. My husband hees friends are mai friends. If she had been English I should almost think she was afraid of us. Where? Sponge. No, no; don't misunderstand me. I mean she's all high birth.
'She raced at the rasper, I felt my knees grasp her, I found my hands give to the strain on the bit; She rose when The Clown did our silks as we bounded Brushed lightly, our stirrups clashed loud as we lit.
As for us older ones, some ran, other walked with their caps under their tunics, others held them on with both hands. The result was the same; our caps were captured! Then did Jimmy Bates, and Joe Bobbins, and Harry Rasper, and I, meet one day, and declare to one another, that this sort of thing was not to be stood. "Let's tell Mother Wren," said one.
