Jasper turned and went out. He would buy the candles himself. But
he had no money. He went to look for his father and found him
feeding the 'gun-dogs.' They received their supper with
imperturbable pessimism, as if they had been soured by their
life-work of putting others in the way of getting what they
themselves wanted, and as if they knew that Solomon liked them not
for what they were, but for what they did. And as they trailed
after Solomon on their leads, day by day, they had an air of being
two very old people playing with a small boy. It was evident that
when his back was turned glances of amused tolerance were
exchanged.
