If he ever gets me cornered, he'll find that I can fight. A small Dog surprised me once before I could get to my hole and I guess that Dog never will tackle another Woodchuck." "Time is up," interrupted Old Mother Nature. "Johnny Chuck has a big cousin out in the mountains of the Great West named Whistler, and on the prairies of the Great West he has a smaller cousin named Yap Yap.
It had a different sound from the noisy crack of Jack Frost, and Reddy stopped a yap right in the middle and whirled about to see what it might be. There was Bowser the Hound almost upon him, his eyes flashing fire, his great, red jaws wide open, and every hair on his back bristling with rage. Reddy Fox didn't wait to say "Good evening," or to see more. Oh, no!
Well, about nine o'clock, when I was settling down to write by the open window of my sitting-room still daylight, and very quiet and warm there began that most maddening sound, the barking of an unhappy dog. I could do nothing with that continual 'Yap yap! going on, and it was too hot to shut the window; so I went out to see if I could stop it.
"Well," Miss Pilgrim seemed a little at a loss. "He's not here." She paused. "I have two rooms here," she added; "this" she must be pointing to the dark open door beside her "and my bedroom. You can look in this room, if that is what you want." Waters heard the answering yap of the policeman and the shuffle of feet. He turned in panic; there was no time to reason with events.
"Yap, yap, yap!" and in rushed Skookum, dragging the end of Rolf's sash which he had gnawed through in his determination to be in the fight, no matter what it cost; and it was entirely due to the fact that the porcupine was belly up, that Skookum did not have another hospital experience.
But in a little while another yap scraps up $40 in cash, catches a sucker to endorse his note and there's a renascence of the old plant.

"And you secured the window on the inside after he had gone." "No!" The monosyllable escaped her lips like the yap of a dog at bay. "You secured the window on the inside after he had gone," Durham repeated in cold, unruffled tones. Mrs. Eustace sprang to her feet and faced him. "It's a lie," she cried. "The room was empty when I came to it." "The room was empty, quite so. And the window was open.

Yet to have declined what was regarded by these simple and amiable people as the very highest token of their regard for the officers of the expedition, would have been bitterly resented.... And, after all, our duties to our King and Queen were paramount... the foundation of friendly relations with the people of this Archipelago!... The engaging manners and modest demeanour of these native ladies were most commendable.
"Do you care as much about me as you do about Yap, Maggie?" said Philip, smiling rather sadly. "Oh, yes, I should think so," said Maggie, laughing. "I'm very fond of you, Maggie; I shall never forget you," said Philip, "and when I'm very unhappy, I shall always think of you, and wish I had a sister with dark eyes, just like yours." "Why do you like my eyes?" said Maggie, well pleased.
