I didn’t want to scare him into lying, although he's pretty truthful even when he | is scared. Jerry is.

He had rea- son to be. He wasin the middle of the spring-hole in the swamp where the Laughing Brook leaves the Green Forest to enter the Smiline Pool. He was wet and he wa. | and he was the worst scared bit that ever was. What was Peter doing in the apring-hole? He was trying to gt out. You see, he had broken through the ice. He had started to cross on the ice and had seen Jerry Muskrat swimming beneath the ice. He had thought it would be a great joke to thump on the ice and give dJerry Muskrat a scare. He had tried it and had thumped himself right through into the water. Now, as you know, Peter isn’t fond of the water ut any time of the year. He isn't a good swimmer, although he can swim. 1f it had been merely a matter of just swimming across to the other side, Peter wouldn’t have minded s0 much. Certainly, he wouldn® have been in despair. He would have known that he could get there. But this ice made all the diffes ence in the world. You cannot swim through ice. Peter kept trying to climb out on the ice. He would get his forepaws up there and try to pull himself out. Then the ice would break again and in Peter | would go. His teeth chattered with the cold. He swallowed a lot of cold water and some of it choked him He knew his strength coulin’t hold long in such cold water, but he kept on struggling. kicking with his big hindfeet and pawing at the with his front feet. “I wish I hadn't tried to ioke on Jerry Muskrat ter. “I wish T had never dear Old Briar-patch.
