“WEEJUMS HELPS RECEIVE”
CHAPTER SIX
UNCLE CYCLONE
CYCLONE was a yellow dog of no breeding, that Franklin had begged from a man in one of the parks.
“He was making horse noises at him,” Franklin said indignantly; “and a man who doesn’t know any better than to make horse noises at a dog, doesn’t deserve to own one.”
So Cyclone became a member of the Wood family, and received his name because of the way that a room looked after he had run through it. He had his peculiarities from the beginning, and one was not to bow to any member of the family that he met on the street. He preferred to take his walks alone, and although Franklin met him in all sorts of places around town, Cyclone would never recognize him.
Soon after Bridget joined the family, she nearly gave notice because of Cyclone’s rude behavior.
