"It's that little scamp of a red squirrel we've seen racing along the wall at the edge of the Old Orchard lately. I can't imagine how he got in there, but there he was, and now here he is." S THAT LITTLE SCAMP OF A RED SQUIRREL WE'VE SEEN RACING ALONG THE WALL AT THE EDGE OF THE OLD ORCHARD LATELY I CAN'T IMAGINE HOW HE GOT IN THERE BUT THERE HE WAS AND NOW HERE HE IS
erer with cruel, hungry eyes. Chatterer took a farewell look at the Old Orchard and way beyond it the Green Forest, from which he had been driven by fear of Shadow the Weasel. Then the door of the farmhouse closed and shut it all out. If there had been any hope in Chatterer's heart, the closing of that door would have shut the last bit out. But there wasn't any hope. Chatterer was sure that he was to be given to Black Pussy for her breakfast. Farmer Brown's boy put the trap on a table. "What have you there?" called a great voice. It was the voice of Farmer Brown himself, who was eating his breakfast. "I've got the thief who has been stealing our corn in the crib," replied Farmer Brown's boy, "and who do you think it is?" "One of those pesky rats," replied Farmer Brown. "I'm afraid you've been careless and left the door open some time, and that is how the rats have got in there." "But it isn't a rat, and I don't believe that there is a rat there," replied Farmer Brown's boy in triumph.  OPE IN THE HEART OF CHATTERER AS FARMER BROWN'S BOY PICKED UP THE WIRE RAT TRAP AND STARTED FOR THE HOUSE BLACK PUSSY THE CAT FOLLOWING AT HIS HEELS AND LOOKING UP AT CHATTERER WITH CRUEL HUNGRY EYES CHALLONER TOOK A FAREWELL LOOK AT THE OLD ORCHARD AND RODE BEYOND THE GREEN FOREST FROM WHICH HE HAD BEEN DRIVEN BY FEAR OF SHADOW AND WEASEL THEN THE DOOR OF THE FARM HOUSE CLOSED AND SHUT IT ALL OUT IF THERE HAD BEEN ANY HOPE IN CHATTERER'S HEART THE CLOSING OF THAT DOOR WOULD HAVE SHUT THE LAST BIT OUT BUT THERE WASN'T ANY HOPE CHATTERER WAS SURE THAT HE WAS GOING TO BE GIVEN TO BLACK PUSSY FOR HER BREAKFAST FARMER BROWN'S BOY PUT THE TRAP ON THE TABLE IT WAS THE VOICE OF FARMER BROWN HIMSELF WHO WAS EATING HIS BREAKFAST I'VE GOT THE THIEF WHO'VE BEEN STEALING OUR CURD IN THE CRIB AND WHO DO YOU THINK IN IT PUSTY RATS I'M AFRAID YOU'VE BEEN CARELESS UNLESS THE DOOR OPEN SOME TIME WELL THAT IS HOW THE RATS STOPPED THERE BUT IT ISN'T A RAT AND I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A RAT THERE IT'
