The history is about the narrator and Stephen Mackaye, they two has a dog name Spot was a big and strong dog who gets them in a lot of troubles, they tried to get rid of the dog but he always come back. The narrator is mad because Stephen Mackaye let him with Spot, however, he does not have reasons to be mad with Steve hence actually he did it first, he left Steve with Spot and after a while Steve send Spot back to him.
<span>Yes. I think the
narrator had a right to was angry with Stephen Mackaye. The narrator wanted to
stay far of Spot and decided abandon his friend Stephen and Spot, so he ran
away. The narrator continued his life, but once was surprised by his abandoned
friend. Stephen discovered where the narrator was living and left Spot on his
gate, after that, ran away too, exactly how the narrator did. Of course the
narrator was mad with, “now”, your “enemy”. Although, what the narrator did was
not correct too, abandon his “friend” with the dog. In the text has a passage that describes the moment
that the narrator is angry with Stephen: “</span><span>A
year went by. I was back in the office and prospering in all ways--even getting
a bit fat. And then Steve arrived. He didn't look me up. I read his name in the
steamer list, and wondered why. But I didn't wonder long. I got up one morning
and found that Spot chained to the gate-post and
holding up the milkman. Steve went north to Seattle, I learned, that very
morning. I didn't put on any more weight. My wife made me buy him a collar and
tag. And that is why I am disappointed in Stephen Mackaye. I had no idea he was
so mean a man.”</span>
