`Gross conduct with King talking in class King meanly tells Parrett he is a beastly sneak.'" "What does he say ?" exclaimed King.

"I told Parrett he was a beastly sneak?
What crams the fellow tells! Fancy me saying that to Parrett! All I said was I wasn't talking!" "Why, I see it," said Parson.

"He's left out a semi-colon or something; the `he's a beastly sneak' means _you_, old man.

`King meanly tells Parrett.

He [that is, King] is a beastly sneak.' That makes it all right." "Does it ?" cried the indignant King--"does it make it all right! I'll make it all right for him, I can promise him.
