The
pony
having
thoroughly
satisfied
himself
as
to
the
nature
and
properties
of
the
fire
-
plug
,
looked
into
the
air
after
his
old
enemies
the
flies
,
and
as
there
happened
to
be
one
of
them
tickling
his
ear
at
that
moment
he
shook
his
head
and
whisked
his
tail
,
after
which
he
appeared
full
of
thought
but
quite
comfortable
and
collected
.
The
old
gentleman
having
exhausted
his
powers
of
persuasion
,
alighted
to
lead
him
;
whereupon
the
pony
,
perhaps
because
he
held
this
to
be
a
sufficient
concession
,
perhaps
because
he
happened
to
catch
sight
of
the
other
brass
-
plate
,
or
perhaps
because
he
was
in
a
spiteful
humour
,
darted
off
with
the
old
lady
and
stopped
at
the
right
house
,
leaving
the
old
gentleman
to
come
panting
on
behind
.
It
was
then
that
Kit
presented
himself
at
the
pony
’
s
head
,
and
touched
his
hat
with
a
smile
.
‘
Why
,
bless
me
,
’
cried
the
old
gentleman
,
‘
the
lad
is
here
!
My
dear
,
do
you
see
?
’
‘
I
said
I
’
d
be
here
,
Sir
,
’
said
Kit
,
patting
Whisker
’
s
neck
.
‘
I
hope
you
’
ve
had
a
pleasant
ride
,
sir
.
He
’
s
a
very
nice
little
pony
.
’
‘
My
dear
,
’
said
the
old
gentleman
.
‘
This
is
an
uncommon
lad
;
a
good
lad
,
I
’
m
sure
.
’
‘
I
’
m
sure
he
is
,
’
rejoined
the
old
lady
.
‘
A
very
good
lad
,
and
I
am
sure
he
is
a
good
son
.
’
Kit
acknowledged
these
expressions
of
confidence
by
touching
his
hat
again
and
blushing
very
much
.
The
old
gentleman
then
handed
the
old
lady
out
,
and
after
looking
at
him
with
an
approving
smile
,
they
went
into
the
house
—
talking
about
him
as
they
went
,
Kit
could
not
help
feeling
.
Presently
Mr
Witherden
,
smelling
very
hard
at
the
nosegay
,
came
to
the
window
and
looked
at
him
,
and
after
that
Mr
Abel
came
and
looked
at
him
,
and
after
that
the
old
gentleman
and
lady
came
and
looked
at
him
again
,
and
after
that
they
all
came
and
looked
at
him
together
,
which
Kit
,
feeling
very
much
embarrassed
by
,
made
a
pretence
of
not
observing
.
Therefore
he
patted
the
pony
more
and
more
;
and
this
liberty
the
pony
most
handsomely
permitted
.
The
faces
had
not
disappeared
from
the
window
many
moments
,
when
Mr
Chuckster
in
his
official
coat
,
and
with
his
hat
hanging
on
his
head
just
as
it
happened
to
fall
from
its
peg
,
appeared
upon
the
pavement
,
and
telling
him
he
was
wanted
inside
,
bade
him
go
in
and
he
would
mind
the
chaise
the
while
.
In
giving
him
this
direction
Mr
Chuckster
remarked
that
he
wished
that
he
might
be
blessed
if
he
could
make
out
whether
he
(
Kit
)
was
‘
precious
raw
’
or
‘
precious
deep
,
’
but
intimated
by
a
distrustful
shake
of
the
head
,
that
he
inclined
to
the
latter
opinion
.
