In quick time Brown's black slut bailed up an "old man" full of fight.

Nothing was more desirable.

He was a monster, a king kangaroo; and as he raised himself to his full height on his toes and tail he looked formidable--a grand and majestic demon of the bush.

The slut made no attempt to tackle him; she stood off with her tongue out.

Several small dogs belonging to Anderson barked energetically at him, even venturing occasionally to run behind and bite his tail.
