THE ARENA WHEN a boy retorted with the direct challenge, "An' you
da'sn't back it " it was a case, if you did not wish to lose caste,
of your either taking the aggressive or effecting some honorable
compromise. It was difficult to explain to an outsider, to one not
in sympathy with the duello, the deep significance of "da'sn't back
it." You felt the term, but you could not elucidate it, save, to
some extent, by example; you yourself, with a red spot on your
