"It is a buster!" said Bertie.
"It is the biggest fellow that has been trapped this season. You won't catch nary 'nother like him. He is a whopper!"
"And it is alive, too!"
"Half and half. He is hurt that bad, it won't take much to finish him. He would show fight if he wasn't dead beat. Shall I pop him over?"
"I don't want to kill him," said Bertie.
"Have you had a fair squint at him?"
"Yes."
"I won't be long settling of his hash."
Jack tapped him on the head with a stone, and after a few shivers the animal was still.
"That killed him so sudden he didn't know what was a hurting of him."
