McTeague

McTeague went out with him, and the two friends proceeded up to the avenue to the house where the dog was to be found.

On different occasions McTeague had treated Marcus for an ulcerated tooth and had refused to accept payment.

Then they made the discovery that they both lived in the same flat, Marcus occupying a room on the floor above McTeague.

"It has led me to thinking, Doctor McTeague," she exclaimed, shaking her little false curls at him.

When he had finished the last of his beer, McTeague slowly wiped his lips and huge yellow mustache with the side of his hand.
