There was Mother at the door again. The Wolf then began running off as fast as he could along the shorter way, which he had chosen, while the little girl went by the longer way, and amused herself with stopping to gather nuts, or run after butterflies, and with making little nosegays of all the flowers she could find. The talk went on mostly about the Canyon. Bob noticed, however, that Jerry King took very little part in the conversation.

Now I’ll blow it.” An ear-splitting blast followed. “Don’t come any further. Beat it back. I reckon we’ve told each other everything we know. Good night. I’ll come back again as soon as I hear anything new.”.
