Bang-bang! Bung-bung!” and he made a noise like a fife and drum going up hill. “Well, I wonder what that can be coming into our woods?” asked one mosquito of another as he stopped buzzing his wings a moment.
Henshaw, pulled the latch key from his pocket, plunged it in the lock, opened the door and shut it. So close was the pursuit on him that the "bang-bang" of the knocker followed at once on the bang of the door. Then the bell went, peal after peal. Jones made for the kitchen stairs and bolted down them, found a passage leading to the back door, and, disregarding the bewildered Mrs.
