“Does he dig the same way you

Old Mr. Toad nodded. “Of course,”
said he. “it is the only proper way
to dig. Spadefoot in a better digger
than I am. He seems to just. sink
right into the ground. If it were not
raining he wouldn’t. be on his way

Just then there was a little splash
in the water a short; distance from
Peter and Mr. Toad. A moment or two
later a new voice joinod the Smiling

“There ho is!" exclnimcd Old Mr.
Toad. "That. is Spsdefoot! I must go
