Excerpt from The Robbers' Cave

Excerpt from The Robbers' Cave
"Lazy dog! can't he drive faster - keeping us grilling here in the heat! I should like to have the use of his whip for a few minutes and try its effect upon his shoulders!" Such was the impatient exclamation of Horace Cleveland, as for the third time he thrust his head out of the carriage window.
