I needed to learn once more some of the magnificent belief that I had taught him in days when my own was stronger.

Close companionship with a dog of the truly Greek spirit, under circumstances in which I now found myself, was bound to be of a tonic value.

I had seen, almost at the moment of Miss Kate's disclosure, that a change was to come in our relations.
