"If Germany and us puts on the gloves," ruminated Mathews, "I"ll be real
sorry Mas"r Dick ain"t "ere. He"s a rare lad, "e is--one o" the right
breed, and no argifyin" can prove contrariwise. I always was fond o"
Mas"r Dick, I was, since "e was so high, and used to come in "ere and ask
me to learn "im how to swear proper like a groom. Ah, a fine lad "e was;
and--criky!--"e were a lovely sight on a hoss. Mister Malcolm "e"s a
fine rider hisself, but just a little stiff to my fancy, conseckens o"
sittin" up on parade with them there Hussars o" hisn. But Mas"r Dick--he
were part o" the hoss, he were, likewise and sim"lar."
