Iteddy Fox was so angry over tho trick Peter Rabbit had played on him that he actually tried to follow Peter -1 into the dear Old Briar Patch. But tv soon pave that up. Peter had his mu private little paths along which h( could hop without the least difficulty. But Reddy was so big that he had to I force his way through the brambles, | nd the brambles tore Ills coat and i'ratched him until at last he was niily too plnd to give up. So, snarl ins and mutterlnB URly thing:*, he finally left the dear Old Briar Patch. Peter rested for a while. Then It ] struok him ns rather queer that he had seen nothing of little Mrs. Peter. Perhaps she had been so frightened by Reddy Fox that she was 1 log somewhere. Peter started out to look for her. He went straight to her favorite place. Pho wasn't there. He went to another place where she often sat. She wasn’t there. “This is queer," thought Peter. Then he carefully searched the whole of the dear Old Briar Patch.

Me looked Into ev ery hiding place. Not a sign of little Mrs. Peter did he find. It was hard to believe, hut at last he had to be lieve that little Mrs. Peter was not in the dear (did Briar Patch. Now. Peter had been so well fed when he had been a prisoner up In Farmer Brown’s barn that he had quite forgotten how hard It was to get enough to eat in the dear Old Briar Patch. Me remembered It now. "It must be that Fuzzy” (for that Is what he always calls her, because her name was .Miss Fuzzytall before she became Mr*. Peter) "has been driven by hunger to leave the dear Old Briar Patch.” thought he. ”1 wonder where she has gone? She may have gone up to the Old Pasture. She may have gone over to the Green Forest* Oh. dear, i wish I knew which way she has gone! She so seldom leaves the dear Old Briar Patch that I am afraid some thing will happen to her. She had no business to leave it. even if she was hungry. She ought to have known better. She might have known how worried I would be.” Then he carefully aearrhed the whole of the dear Old Briar Patch. How that would have tickled little Mrs. Peter If she could have heard it. Time and time and time again she had pleaded with Peter to stay in the dear Old Briar Patch and Peter had laughed at her. Time and time and time again she had worried because Peter did not return. Now Peter was learning how little Mrs. Peter felt. My, how lonesome the dear Old Briar Patch seemed. Peter tried to take a nap and forget it. But he was too uneasy to sleep. He kept hopping around through those private little paths hoping and hoping that unex pectedly little Mrs. Peter would pop up from somewhere. Rjit little Mrs. Peter didn't pop up. Peter Imagined all kinds of dreadful things. He re memtiered how It was from around the end of the dear Old Briar Patch that Reddy Fox had appeared. Could it he that Reddy had caught Mrs. Peter?
