IO JOHNNY BLOSSOM
Johnny dashed off at a run. What if they
hadn’t had even fish to eat at Tellef’s house
today on account of the broken pole?
The road was very steep and he almost slid
down, landing right near the shanty where
Tellef lived. Oh, dear! What was to be done
next? It would be very embarrassing to say
to Tellef that he felt ashamed of himself. How
could he do it?
Aha! there was Christina, Tellef’s little
sister.
"Here, Christina. Will you give these to
Tellef?"
Johnny Blossom handed her the two
half-dollars, speaking fast and feeling in a great
hurry to get away. Christina looked at him
in amazement.
"What for?" she asked.
"Oh, because I fought him; because his
fishpole got smashed."
He was off, leaping up the steep road.
Christina looked at the’money and then at the
disappearing boy and said, "How queer he was!"
For several days Johnny Blossom avoided
meeting Tellef, but he saw that Tellef had
bought a handsome strong fishing rod, and that
he had had fish to take home every single day.
