We were in Glasgow next day, and the Major took us down to the depot, where a soldier with three stripes on his arm and a fistful of ribbons from his cap, showed every tooth he had in his head at the sight of Jim, and walked three times round him to have the view of him, as if he had been Carlisle Castle.
Nous arrivions à Glasgow le lendemain. Le major nous conduisit au dépôt, où un soldat qui avait trois chevrons sur le bras et un flot de rubans à son bonnet, montra tout ce qu'il avait de dents aux mâchoires, à la vue de Jim, et fit trois fois le tour de sa personne pour le considérer à son aise, comme s'il s'était agi du château de Carlisle.
