Excerpt from Jan, Son of Finn And so there is a possibility of Finn's son being introduced to the British public during the present year of stress; should the paper supply and other matters permit.

Excerpt from Jan, Son of Finn And so there is a possibility of Finn's son being introduced to the British public during the present year of stress; should the paper supply and other matters permit. Well, may the best of luck go with him. He's a good dog, though I say it who should be silent on the point; and I do not think he is likely to suffer much from my absence when he steps into the ring of public opinion. In the old days I figured as judge once or twice in the ring at dog-shows; and I used to fancy that some of the exhibits would have lost nothing by the temporary absence of their masters and mistresses. Those hurried touches of brush or comb, you know; those nervous twitchings of the lead, which were meant to secure a better carriage of the head, a more impressive front - I don't believe Finn's son has any need of them. In any case the front line trenches offer no facilities for the leisurely revision of proofs; and, after all, the printers will no doubt present the story pretty much as it was written. It was finished, you remember, towards the close of that calm, infinitely remote age which preceded the breaking loose of the Hun. I remember that the writing of its last page, in June 1914, seemed an event of no small importance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
