Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Last Hurdle: A Story of Sporting and Courting
All right, I'll see about it. And I go down to Jack. While shaking hands with him, the dog turns up.
Ah! You brute! Where have you been? Cries Jack, shaking his fist at him. I never saw such a dog for wanderings and investigations, Gerald; his mania for discovery is simply marvellous.
The worst of it is that dogs are forbidden here, Jack. But come into this side-room - I don't suppose the secretary will hang us for bringing your favourite only thus far.
