Oh, I remember now, it was about how Sammie fell down and hurt his nose, wasn't it? Oh, no, it wasn't either. It was about how he was colored sky-blue-pink; to be sure. Well, now I'm going to tell you about Hot Cross Buns, how Susie Littletail made some very especially fine ones, and what happened to them. But the last part is a secret, so I wish you wouldn't tell any one.
"Oh, no, there was no fightin', parson. Sammie didn't fight; that's not the Dunker way. But he hurt little Nancy Garvan, and when Rod told him to stop, he slapped him in the face. Rod then walked into him and gave him two black eyes, a bloody nose, and left him sprawlin' upon the floor. That was all there was about it. Oh, no, there was no fightin'."
"Yes," she answered, but she never would have let him if she had known what was going to happen. "I'll make this a skilligimink color," said Sammie, and he stood over the pot. Then, what do you think occurred? Why, Sammie leaned too far over and he fell right in that pot of skilligimink color; he and the egg together. And oh, dear me! what a time there was.
They all shook their heads, and Bully No-Tail, the frog boy, answered: “If you please, teacher, perhaps his sister, Susie, knows.” “Oh, of course! Why didn’t I think to ask her?” said the teacher. So she looked over on the girls’ side of the room, but, would you believe it? Susie, the rabbit girl, wasn’t there either. “That is very odd,” said the teacher, “both Sammie and Susie out!
Uncle Wiggily Longears, the nice old gentleman rabbit, hopped out of bed one morning and started to go to the window, to see if the sun was shining. But, no sooner had he stepped on the floor, than he cried out: "Oh! Ouch! Oh, dear me and a potato pancake! Oh, I believe I stepped on a tack! Sammie Littletail must have left it there! How careless of him!"
"That was my first present," he continued, "but it isn't my last, not by a long jugful, no, sir-ree." "But what did Rodney do, captain?" the parson enquired. "We are very anxious to hear." "Do! What did he do, eh? Why, he walked right over Sammie Dunker, that's what he did. Oh, I heard all about it at the store that very night.
"Sammie Brown has been telling them some story about buried treasure his father found." "Well, I believe that is a true story," said Mr. Bunker. "I heard my sister say something about Mr. Brown having been shipwrecked on an island once, and coming back with gold. But if we go to Cousin Tom's we shall have to begin packing soon, shall we not?" he went on. "Yes," agreed his wife.
Porter is working among his potatoes so I guess Sammie can't do much harm," Mab said. A little later she and Hal happened to look out in front and they saw a queer sight. Sammie was drawing along the sidewalk his little express wagon, in which he had piled some tomatoes.
They had their catching gloves, and a ball and a bat, and when the squirrel boys saw Buddy they called out: "Come on, let's have a game of baseball." "All right," agreed Buddy. "But who else will play?" "Oh! we'll get Sammie Littletail, and Bully and Bawly, the frogs, and Jackie and Peetie Bow Wow, and Jimmie Wibblewobble, and we'll have a fine game," said Billie Bushytail.
Ring around the rosey, sweet tobacco posey!" she cried, and then she rubbed first one pink finger on one glass, and then another pink finger on the other glass of the spectacles. And a most wonderful thing happened, she smiled as she held the glasses up in front of Sammie and Susie, and as true as I'm telling you, if everything wasn't as bright and shining as a new tin dishpan.
