@deter breakfast than red squirrel"
with this Billy Mink started to climb
s4he tree.
= There was a sudden silence in the
SYeen Forest Chattefer had discov-
s4red his carelessness, and sudden and
great fear silenced his tongue. Fran
stically he hunted for hole in that
stree, a hole big enough for him to
9enter but too small for Billy Mink.
There was none. Then he raced mad
-ly clear to the top of the tree. He
looked down and saw Billy coming up.
>. Chatterer quite lost his head. He
.scame down to some of the longer
..branches and ran out to the tip of
zone of them, hoping to be able to
ajump to another tree. But the dis
Stance was too great and Chatterer
s4jumped over to another branch. He
~found himself no better off there. and
raced about frantically. jumping
1from branch to branch. Then as Billy
sMfnk drew nearer Chatterey went
Shfghef until he was quite at the top
Sof the tree once more.
- He was trapped. That was all there
was to it; he was trapped. His care
= 1exsness had brought him into the
swcfst kind Of trouble.
