Who Did It Or Holmwood Priory PDF Download

Excerpt from Who Did It?: Or, Holmwood Priory; A Schoolboy's Cale "Dull work this!" exclaimed Jerry Taunton, a lad of seventeen or so, whose naturally merry face wore, for the nonce, a most lugubrious aspect. "I wish the weather would at all events make up its mind, whether it meant to be wet or dry!" "It has made up its mind," growled Rawes, a heavy loutish-looking lad of near about the same age. "It has made up its mind to be wet all the afternoon, and to be nothing else. It is always wet on a half holiday now. I think I never saw a place look more beastly than this playground does on a rainy day!" And as he spoke, he glanced sullenly round him at the grimy discoloured bricks of the playground wall of Holm-wood Priory, as Dr Thornton's school was called, and the soaking gravel of the playground itself, in which large puddles were forming.
