The Rescue of Pluffles - Wikiwand

This particular engagement lasted seven weeks--we called it the Seven Weeks' War--and was fought out inch by inch on both sides. A detailed account would fill a book, and would be incomplete then. Any one who knows about these things can fit in the details for himself. It was a superb fight--there will never be another like it as long as Jakko stands--and Pluffles was the prize of victory. People said shameful things about Mrs. Hauksbee. They did not know what she was playing for. Mrs. Reiver fought, partly because Pluffles was useful to her, but mainly because she hated Mrs. Hauksbee, and the matter was a trial of strength between them. No one knows what Pluffles thought. He had not many ideas at the best of times, and the few he possessed made him conceited. Mrs. Hauksbee said:--"The boy must be caught; and the only way of catching him is by treating him well."

He preferred what he called trusting to his own judgment. He had as much judgment as he had seat or hands ; and this preference tumbled him into trouble once or twice.

They were all to the same end, and they helped Pluffles in the path of Virtue.Pluffles was a subaltern in the ‘Unmentionables.’ He was callow, even for a subaltern. He was callow all over—like a canary that had not finished fledging itself. The worst of it was that he had three times as much money as was good for him; Pluflies’ Papa being a rich man, and Pluffles being the only son. P1uffles’ Mamma adored him. She was only a little less callow than Pluffles, and she believed everything he said. There was never any scandal—she had not generous impulses enough for that. She was the exception which proved the rule that Anglo-Indian ladies are in every way as nice as their sisters at Home. She spent her life in proving that rule.

She would have liked it spoiled as a compliment, I fancy. Mrs. Hauksbee wanted to keep him under her wing to the last. Therefore she discountenanced his going down to Bombay to get married.Its long horns, shaggy fur, thin legs, and cow-like snout are also similar to that of a domestic yak.
