A Dog with a Bad Name

CHAPTER FIVE
13/19

Do you know the school ?" "No.

What's the name of the house ?" "Oh, Galloway House, in Ebor Road.

It wasn't so bad when Fison was there," continued the open-hearted Freddy; "but now he's gone.
Trimble's a cad." "We hate her," chimed in the original Teddy.
"We hope the new master will be like Fison, but I don't believe Trimble can get any one to come," said Freddy.
Jeffreys pricked up his ears and asked a good many questions about the school, which the youthful pair readily and gaily replied to, and then suggested that if Trimble was such a cad the boys had better not be late.
"Have some parliament cake ?" said Freddy, opening his satchel and producing a large square of crisp gingerbread.
Jeffreys had not the heart to refuse a little piece of this delicacy, and enjoyed it more than the most sumptuous meal in an hotel.

Teddy also insisted on his taking a bite out of his apple.
"Good-bye," said the little fellow, putting up his face in the most natural manner for a kiss.

Jeffreys felt quite staggered by this unexpected attention, but recovered his presence of mind enough to do what was expected of him.
