He had not forgotten how Tom and Sam had sent him to the floor in the presence of Minnie Sanderson.
The three students walked a distance of half a mile when they saw approaching them a trampish-looking man carrying what looked to be a new dress-suit case.

They looked at the fellow rather sharply and he halted as he came up to them.
"Excuse me," he mumbled, "but did any of you gents lose this case ?" "Why, it must be Rover's case!" cried Flockley.

Nearly every one in the college had heard about the missing baggage.
"I found it in the bushes alongside the road," went on the tramp.
"Thought it might belong to some of the college gents." "Let me look at it," said Koswell, and turned the case around.

"Yes, it's Rover's," he added, seeing the initials and the address.
"Better take it up to the college," put in Larkspur.
"Wait, I'll take it up," said Jerry Koswell suddenly.

"This belongs to a poor chap," he added to the tramp.
