Bruce Browning.
gpt
Well, it's simply marvelous that he stuck to it long enough to write all that! laughed Frank.
human
And he, like the others, thinks the check a fake.
gpt
What's the matter, Bart?
human
Nothing,
gpt
Oh, come! Was there anything in those letters you did not like?
human
No. It was something there was not in the letters.
gpt
What?
human
Not one of those fellows even mentioned me! cried Hodge, fiercely whirling about.
gpt
I didn't care a rap about Diamond and Rattleton, but Browning would have showed a trace of decency if he had said a word about me. He made a bad blunder and was forced to confess it, but I'll bet he doesn't think a whit more of me now.
human
Oh, you are too sensitive, old man. They did not even write anything in particular for news, and think how many of my friends at college they failed to mention.
gpt
Oh, well; they knew I was with you, and one of them might have asked for me. I hope you may go back to Yale, Merry, but wild horses could not drag me back there! I hate them all!
human
Hate them, Hodge?
gpt
Yes, hate them! Bart almost shouted.
human
They are a lot of cads! There is not a whole man among them!
