To all intents and purposes Gordon was head of the House, and the House regarded him as such. Rudd was generally known as the "nominal head." Gordon had got his power, and for the next six weeks he decided to enjoy it to the full. On the cricket field, although not quite keeping to the promise or the luck of May, he did well enough to make the batting cup quite certain.

But occasionally there comes in a little piece of fanciful criticism on the text, or a comment on some side-view or transaction, or the suggestion of a probability or a possibility, which remind one of the thin puerilities of the commentators whom Dr. Furness despises more than of the general drift of his own discussion.

Rudd knew the outside of a bill as well as his young master, and had selected the love-letter from the others, and placed it first. When Dick was dressed, he opened the girl's letter, and his face softened: DEAREST, I hear that everything was settled last night, and I must see you this morning. There are many things to be talked of before the dreadful good-bye.
'Yere I gets married, an' in less'n an hour my wife is ravaged away at the whoop of dooty to ride herd on another gent's fam'ly,; leavin' me, her husband, with that other gent's abandoned progeny on my hands. This yere's gettin' to be a boggy ford for Billy Rudd, you bet. "But while Billy takes on a heap, he don't impress me like he's hurt none after all.
But what about when you have left? You are too self-centred to see anybody else's point of view. Après moi le deluge; that's your philosophy. As long as you yourself prosper, you don't care a damn what happens to anyone else, and you have prospered right enough. You'll have left a name behind you, all right." "I don't want to have to kick you out, Rudd," said Gordon.
In about twenty months the pond was full of small rudd, and last year we netted out many hundred, as the water was terribly over-stocked with them. The same thing has happened in almost every case which has come to my knowledge; that is, of course, where the waters have been stocked with food, and suitable to the fish introduced.
"Oh, I knew the fellow was a wrong 'un, all along," were the first words that filtered to the girl's consciousness as she stood. "But I didn't think he was responsible for that card trick, I must say. Young Bathurst looked so abominably hangdog." It was the Englishman, Norton, who spoke, and the man who stood with him was Rudd.
Say, for instance, that you had eaten a fine bit of terrapin, done to the most exquisite point you could have asked the cook's name, and written an apostrophe to her. Something like this, for instance: Oh, Dinah Rudd! oh, Dinah Rudd! Thou art a cook of bluest blood! Nowhere within This world of sin Have I e'er tasted better terrapin. Do you see?"
Gordon went up, carefully arranged the victim's coat, stepped back as if preparing a brutal assault, and then flicked him twice. A roar of laughter broke from all sides. Rudd shifted uneasily on his feet. Foster went up and did the same, then Davenport, then the rest of the prefects. The very walls seemed shrieking with laughter. Flushing dark red, Rudd strode across to his study.
