Good-day, comrades! Do you remember me?
gpt
No fear, Puffey, after once seen.
human
You were with us at the capture of Red Dick, I think?
gpt
Two of us were.
human
Ah, I have just been over and seen Fellows, to thank him, and all who were with him, for the excellent help rendered to the police on that occasion.
gpt
What will be done with the prisoner?
human
That will be decided at Quebec.
gpt
Have they sent him there?
human
Yes.
gpt
Then he has not much chance left.
human
Well, we shall see.
gpt
You say you saw Fellows?
human
Yes; he’s a smart chap, and I have been trying to persuade him to join our force.
gpt
What next? Is he inclined to do it?
human
I can’t say yet. He has promised to think the matter over, which is all I could expect at first.
gpt
And I hope it will end there; he’s too good a pal to lose.
human
Do you know much about him then? Has he been here long?
gpt
Not many months, but he is good company, plenty to talk about, and inclined to be sociable.
human
Does he bear a good character?
gpt
We know nothing about him before he came here, but we have never heard a word against him since he has been amongst us.
human
Good day,
