Buddy thought it was the fox, so he cried: "You had better let us out of here, Mr. Fox, or we'll have you arrested!" "Why, that's Buddy Pigg!" cried the voice, and all of a sudden the box was lifted and there stood the two groundhog boys; Woody and Waddy Chuck were their names. "We didn't mean to catch you," said Woody.
He couldn't believe that old Waddington would do anything of the sort. "Unless," Major Markham suggested, "he's been got at. Mrs. Levitt may have got at him." He was a good sort, old Waddy, but he would be very weak in the hands of a clever, unscrupulous woman. The Rector said he thought there was no harm in Mrs. Levitt, and Major Markham replied that he didn't like the look of her.
This woman drove slowly up the one road of Waddy, and standing erect in her vehicle roundly abused the township from end to end.
Hawtrey continued to call with a delightful sense of doing something that their wives considered improper. Major Markham as a bachelor his movements were more untrammelled declared it his ambition to "cut Waddy out." He was everlastingly calling at the White House. His fastidious correctness, the correctness that hadn't "liked the look of her," excused this intensive culture of Mrs.

Waddy was always on hand to wake the smouldering fires of suspicion in Mrs. Bent's bosom and to contribute generally to the peace and comfort of the hotel. Mr. Bent's life was not a happy one, for if Mrs. Waddy's story were true, he was, argued his wife, untrustworthy to the last degree.
Waddy brought down a young man from London to measure me, so that my mourning attire might be in the perfect cut of fashion. 'The child's papa would strip him if he saw him in a country tailor's funeral suit, she said, and seemed to blow a wind of changes on me that made me sure my father had begun to stir up his part of the world.
"What sticks me is where to camp down afterwards," says I. "I've been lookin' around some, but " "By Jove!" says Mr. Robert, slappin' his knee. "Who was it that was bothering me just after dinner? Waddy Crane! He's been pretending to be an artist, you know; but now he's got hold of his money, it's all off. He's going to start a bandbox theater in Chicago, elevate the drama, all that sort of thing.
Almost worn out, the boy sprang round, and, seizing the waddy, began to chastise the gin, whose screams blended with his unwholesome threats. But the claws held on not like grim death; they were grim death. Every second blow was directed aft one blow forward, which generally severely disagreed with the gin; one blow astern, which afforded neither mental relief nor physical comfort.
