Overview

Excerpt: ... between his jaws, Jan rushed out into the yard, there to be rewarded with the assurance of Dicks affectionate approval and the enthusiastic plaudits of the other troopers. "Youve put the Indian sign on him, all right," said French, the Devonshire man. "It must have taken some doing to lick him into that shape." "Theres no Indian sign about it, old man," said Dick. "It isnt any lambasting Jans afraid of. You watch his face now, when I lift this stick." The men all watched, and noted that Jan did not move so much as an eyelid in response to the lifting of a stick. "Well, thats queer," said old Cartier, the French-Canadian dealer, who was visiting a friend in the barracks. "Dont seem as though that dog ever was licked." "And so far as I know," said Dick, "he never has been. But, mind you, thats not to say he never will be. Id never hesitate to thrash a dog if he deserved it, and thrash him good and hard, too. But so far Master Jan has never asked for lickings. Have you Jan? Thats why hes not afraid of a stick; for Id never hit a dog or a horse unless really to punish him, so that hed know it was a thrashing
