It shall run from here to the Barriere du Trone. It shall be a hundred feet broad, and have arcades and plantations. This street shall be the finest in the world."
Old Turk, a giant in size among dogs, had been in the family for many years; Grip was rescued from the canal, where some cruel boys had thrown him, by Tom himself; and Pete Trone, Esquire, was bought with Tom's first five-dollar bill, and soon proved himself a terrier of manifold accomplishments, the brightest and most mischievous member of the trio.
The talking consisted of a dialogue between Tom and Gem, carried on through the half-closed door of their respective rooms during the morning toilet, and the subject, as usual, was Pete Trone, Esq.

"You may talk of my name as much as you please, And carry my name abroad, But I really do believe I'm a child of God As I walk in de heavenly road. O, won't you go wid me?
