William is a pug dog belonging to Mrs Barrable. He is described as a hard worker and should become successful by a fortune-telling automatic weighing machine (CC13).
William’s thoughts are sometimes given:
- He was annoyed to find some of her paint-brushes soaking in a jam-pot .... that turpentine might have ruined his nose for a week. How careless people were. (CC5).
- Quick work if that boy in the reeds had managed already to be out there .... but he supposed his mistress knew (CC5).
- He decided that harness meant going back to sweet-shops and civilisation .... (but then) Never in his life had he been so badly treated (CC27).
- The stout William paddled on ahead .... He had formed a high opinion of the Wilderness .... (BS18).
