"You know it's against rules," said he, as severely as he could, "and it's not the first time you've done it. You must do fifty lines of Virgil, and stop in the house on Monday and Tuesday." "All right! Thanks," said Telson, rapidly departing, and leaving Riddell quite bewildered by the apparent gratitude of his fag. Telson betook himself quietly to his study and began to write his lines.
The world is very large I am small in the world I will aspire as I go to chapel I view Riddell who toucheth his hat. Gross conduct of my father sending me only half a crown breakfast at 7:33. Disturbance with the evil Telson whereby I obtained lines."
But when that evening Riddell put in an appearance at supper, in their house, and when Telson was intercepted bringing over his late master's goods and chattels to the study next but one to that of Silk, they began to take the matter in rather more seriously.
On his way over he met Parson and Telson, walking arm-in-arm. Although the same spectacle had met his eyes on an average twice every day that term, and was about the commonest "show" in Willoughby, the sight of the faithful pair at this particular time when the revelations of Bosher's diary were tingling in his ears impressed the captain.
It was a beastly shame giving Filbert ten, though wasn't it, Telson? after his running second to me in the March gallops; they ought to have stuck him where I was. But I ran him down all the same, and dead-heated it with Watkins, and Telson here was a good second in his heat." "I was sure of a first, but that young ass Wace fouled me," puts in Telson. "And now it's dead-even which of us two wins.
"I tell you what I'll do," said he, in a business-like manner, much as if Brown had asked him to clean out his study for him, "if you ask Telson to come too, I'm game." Brown half doubted whether these two allies had not been consulting together on the subject, so startling was the similarity of their conditions. "Oh! Telson's coming," he said, in as offhand a way as he could. "He is!
The distinction was none other than a sign of recognition from the doctor and a friendly signal to approach. Like a pair of small well-trained circus ponies the two friends obeyed the summons and climbed over the intervening skirts. "Well, Telson and Parson," said the doctor, shaking hands, "I'd no idea you were here how are you?" "We got a captain's permit. Quite well, thank you, sir."
"Hullo, you two!" exclaimed he. "Guessed I'd find you here. Such a lark!" "What is it?" asked the two friends, delighted with any diversion. "Why," exclaimed the delighted King, "you know Bosher?" "What about him? What's he done?" "Guess." "It's not he that cut the rudder-line, is it?" asked Telson. "No, of course not. But, just fancy, he keeps a diary!"
Whenever King and Bosher greeted the appearance of the Parrett's boat with a friendly cheer they hooted; and no sooner did Telson sing out to welcome the crew of his house, but they caterwauled derisively in the same direction. "Jolly lot they know about rowing!" yelled Cusack. "Why don't you give them some lessons?" retorted Telson, hotly. "Boo hoo! Who got kicked out his boat!
"I don't think you had any right to tell him to go to Bloomfield," replied Riddell, with a boldness which astonished himself. "I'm responsible for stopping fights." "I don't want you to tell me my business," retorted Game, hotly; "who are you?" Game could have thrashed the captain as easily as he could Telson, and the thought flashed through Riddell's mind as he paused to reply.
