She pointed belligerently at her tormentor with the hand that held the brush. "Being the scrub-lady's stalwart son, you wouldn't understand. But I can write. I sha'n't go under. I'm going to make this town count me in as the four million and oneth.
Walter ran down to the water's edge, lending the unfortunate fat boy a helping hand. The pony in the meantime had clambered up the bank and was trotting off to join its fellows. "What -what -who did that?" demanded Stacy belligerently. "Did what?" replied Ned. "Who threw me in?" "I reckon you threw yourself in," answered Tad. "I didn't." "The pony did it for you. Don't be a goose," commanded Ned.
