Synopsis
Hello, Jerry Muskrat! Wed forgotten all about you, said Mrs. Quack. What was that you said? Jerry good-naturedly repeated what he had said. Mrs. Quacks face brightened. Do you really mean it? she asked eagerly. Do you really mean that you know of a pond where we could live and not be likely to be seen by these two-legged creatures called men? Thats what I said, replied Jerry briefly. Oh, Jerry, youre not joking, are you? Tell me youre not joking, begged Mrs. Quack. Of course Im not joking, returned Jerry just a little bit indignantly, I am not the kind of a fellow to joke people who are in such trouble as you and Mr. Quack seem to be in. (Summary by Burgess)
