THE ADVENTURES OF JERRY MUSKRAT
BY THORNTON W. BURGESS
CHAPTER I: Jerry Muskrat Has A Fright
What was it Mother Muskrat had said about Farmer Brown's boy and his
traps? Jerry Muskrat sat on the edge of the Big Rock and kicked his
heels while he tried to remember. The fact is, Jerry had not half heeded.
He had been thinking of other things. Besides, it seemed to him that
Mother Muskrat was altogether foolish about a great many things.
"Pooh!" said Jerry, throwing out his chest, "I guess I can take care
of myself without being tied to my mother's apron strings! What if
Farmer Brown's boy is setting traps around the Smiling Pool? I guess
he can't fool your Uncle Jerry. He isn't so smart as he thinks he is;
I can fool him any day." Jerry chuckled. He was thinking of how
he had once fooled Farmer Brown's boy into thinking a big trout was
on his hook.
