Here he comes." There was a deep angry bark at a distance, and this sounded nearer, and was followed by the rustling of feet, ending in a joyous whining and panting as a great sheep-dog raced up to the boys, and began to leap and fawn upon them, but only to stop suddenly, stand sniffing the air in the direction of the old priory, and utter an uneasy whine.
"Hey, boy! what's the matter ?" said Tom.
"He smells that fox," said Dick triumphantly.

"I say, I wish we'd had him with us.

There! he's got wind of him.

I wish it wasn't so dark, and we'd go back and have a run." "Have a run! have a swim, you mean," said Tom.
