It had been no easy matter when he first drifted in mysteriously out of nowhere to their little mountain cottage. Footsore an famished, he had killed a rabbit under their very noses and under their very windows, and crawled away and slept by the spring at the foot of the blackberry bushes. When Walt Irvine wen down to inspect the intruder, he was snarled at for his pains, and Madge likewise was snarled at when she went down to present, as a peace-offering, a large pan of bread and milk.
A most unsociable dog he proved to be, resenting all their advances, refusing to let them lay hands on him, menacing them with bared fangs and bristling hair. Nevertheless, he remained, sleeping and resting by the spring, and eating the food they gave him after they set it down in a safe distance and retreated.
