Don't you, Mr.
Buckley ?" "I like him exceedingly;--I hope he'll stop with us," continued Jim.
"And I also," said Sam, "but what shall we do to-morrow ?" "Let's have a hunt," said Jim.

"Halbert, have you ever been kangaroo hunting ?" "Never!--I want to go!" "Well, we can have a capital hunt to-morrow: Sam has got his dog Fly here, and I'll take one of my best dogs, and we'll have a good run, I dare say." "I shall come, too," said Alice: "that is," added she, looking shyly at Sam, "if you would be kind enough to take care of me, and let Mr.
Halbert and Jim do the riding.

But I'm afraid I shall be sadly in your way." "If you don't go," said Sam, "I shall stay at home: now then!" At this minute, the housekeeper came in bearing jugs and glasses.
"Eleanor," said Jim, "is Jerry round ?" "Yes, sir; he's coiled somewhere in the woodhouse," said she.
"Just rouse him out and send him in." "Who is this Jerry who coils in woodhouses ?" said Halbert.
"A tame black belonging to us.

He is great at all sorts of hunting; I want to see if he can find us a flying doe for to-morrow." Jerry entered, and advanced with perfect self-possession towards the fire.

He was a tall savage, with a big black beard, and wavy hair like a Cornishman.
