The collie sprang first to one side and then to the other, and snarled and snapped; but Van Bibber was keen with the excitement of the chase, so he plunged forward recklessly and tackled the dog around the body, and they both rolled over and over together.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
