When did you say your school term closes ?" "In a fortnight." "I will see your stepfather within a few days.

By the way, Frank, wouldn't you like a gallop on Ajax to-night ?" "Yes, sir; I should enjoy it." "Come out to the stable with me, then." Ajax whinnied with delight when he saw his old, or rather his young master, and evinced satisfaction when Frank stroked him caressingly.
"Sam," said Col.

Vincent, "Frank is to ride Ajax whenever he pleases.
Saddle him for his use whenever he asks you." "That I will, sir" answered Sam.

"Often and often I've seen Mr.Frank on his back.

Five minutes later he was on the back of his favorite horse, galloping down the road.
"I hope I shall meet Mark," thought Frank.
