I remember we used to give this boy some pennies, which was a lot for us in those days since you could buy quite a few sweets with it, to allow us to sit next to him in class. The teacher never dared punish a boy who was under his protection. If such a boy was summoned at the front of the class to get cp this big boy would get up of his desk and say to the teacher “Don’t you dare touch him.”
And the teacher would respond “Okay, okay, George” almost trembling, and sending the boy back to his desk. I remember this, as well as the boy’s name, very well, even though I forget the teacher’s name.
