But Caswell was an old Crimea veteran; his face had been spiled by a powder explosion; but he certainly was a sporter! Me and him got along fine. My! My! what a randy old feller he was! The men used to sit around him with their mouths open waitin' to laugh. Grimy Caswell they called him, along of his speckled face great big man!
Such a spectacle could not have failed of diverting the whole company from the chase had his horse thought proper to pursue a different route; but the beast was too keen a sporter to choose any other way than that which the stag followed and therefore, without stopping to gratify the curiosity of the spectators, he in a few minutes outstripped every hunter in the field.
Hullo, where did you raise that Sporter? Let's have a look. But Baker proposed to conduct this business in person. It is ten times more pleasant to administer a series of shocks to a friend than to sit by and watch him administering them to himself. He retained The Sportsman, and began to read out the team.
"You've let the house down awfully," said Clayton. "Yes?" said Sheen. Linton took the paper out of his pocket, and smoothed it out. "Seen the Sporter?" he asked casually. His neighbour grabbed at it.

He strolled into the senior day-room after breakfast. "Any one seen the Sporter this morning?" he inquired. No one had seen it. "The thing hasn't come," said some one. "Good!" said Linton to himself. At this point Stanning strolled into the room. "I'm a witness," he said, in answer to Linton's look of inquiry. "We're doing this thing in style.
I shall bestow on him the Order of the Pink Vulture of Megalia, First Class. I shall make him a Count. Do you think, my friend, that he would wish to be a Count? His action is most noble. He is a good sporter. I will now go back to Paris. The Emperor can say no more to me. The young fellow Phillips has married the girl." "Not quite married her," said Gorman, "but it's nearly the same thing."
Did you send the team for tomorrow up to the sporter? I wonder what sort of a lot the Town are bringing." "About not giving Barry his footer colours?" Clowes was reading the paper. "Giving whom?" he asked. "Barry. Can't you listen?" "Giving him what?" "Footer colours." "What about them?" Trevor sprang at the paper, and tore it away from him. After which he sat on the fragments.
