"I'm very sorry about this thing I did, Bunny and Sue," went on Mr. Foswick. "I'd no idea it was you I'd locked up. I supposed it was those pesky boys. Both doors were locked  I made sure of that  and the windows were nailed shut. I keep 'em shut so nobody can get in at night." I'M VERY SORRY ABOUT THIS THING I DID BUNNY AND SUE WENT ON MISTER FOS I'D NO IDEA IT WAS YOU I'D LOCKED UP I SUPPOSED IT WAS THOSE PESKY BOYS BOTH DOORS WERE LOCKED I MADE SURE OF THAT AND THE WINDOWS WERE NAILED SHUT I KEEP EM SHUT SO NOBODY CAN GET IN AT NIGHT
pened the front door, unlocking it with a big key. "I thought it was some of those pesky boys. They run in when I have the door open, and when I'm away in the back part of the shop, and busy, they scatter the shavings and sawdust all about. "They came in once this afternoon," said Mr. Foswick, "and I made up my mind if they did it again I'd teach 'em a lesson. So I locked my back door, and I went into the alley near my front door. I knew all the windows were nailed shut. "Then, when I was in the alley, I heard somebody run into my shop, and, quick as I could, I ran out, pulled the door shut, and locked 'em in. I supposed it was some of those pesky boys, and I was going to keep 'em locked up until I could go get their fathers and tell 'em how they pester me. I didn't have a notion, Bunny, that it was you and Sue, or I'd never have done such a thing--never!" Mr. Brown often hired Mr. Foswick to do carpentry, and the rather crabbed and cross old man did not want to offend a good customer.
