Hugh Melton: A Story (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Hugh Melton: A Story

My dear fellow, I really am sorry for your want of success this morning, and I dare say you'll do better next time; and if you'd take my advice, you'd try again after lunch with a lighter fly. Stay, you have a few feathers with you; pass them over here, and I'll tie you one I think will do.

I did as he told me, and feeling sorry for having spoken so crossly to him, I watched his nimble fingers as he proceeded to dress a very artistic-looking fly.
