The stains soon dried, and Rolf, re-clothed, felt that already he had burned a bridge.
The crisp air stirred the bright yellow leaves which clung lovingly to the birches, and a few dull red leaves still rustled upon the stout branches of the oaks, but many of the trees were bare, and under foot there lay a thick carpet of dried foliage through which the children delighted to scuff their way toward school.

The two rabbits tried to get Sammie out, but they could not, because the trap was too strong.
