There ain't no mud there any more; Willard wouldn't get mussed up, now. The suck-hole ain't a foot deep any more." "You're a scapegrace," said Aunt Martha severely. Ruth felt that she was shaking a deprecatory finger at him. "Your manners have been neglected."
"Why, he's all wet!" he exclaimed. "I expect he come pretty near drownin', didn't he, ma'am?" He looked again at the girl, astonishment in his eyes. "An' so he drove you into that suck-hole, an' he got throwed out! Wasn't there no one to tell him that Calamity ain't to be trusted?" "Mr. Vickers told us to keep to the right after reaching the middle," said the girl.
