As soon as he got it he climbed out of the window, glass, frog and all, and I saw him and the old setter go down the garden walk together in pursuit of the desired squirrel, I suppose. I closed the blinds and drew the curtains again and flung myself on my pillow.

It had fallen to her to general this great feast that Billy’s mates had planned for the celebration of his birthday. All had contributed.
