Book Description
The kettle began it! Don't tell me what Mrs. Peerybingle said. I know better. Mrs. Peerybingle mayleave it on record to the end of time that she couldn't say which of them began it; but, I say thekettle did. I ought to know, I hope! The kettle began it, full five minutes by the little waxy-facedDutch clock in the corner, before the Cricket uttered a chirp.As if the clock hadn't finished striking, and the convulsive little Haymaker at the top of it, jerkingaway right and left with a scythe in front of a Moorish Palace, hadn't mowed down half an acre ofimaginary grass before the Cricket joined in at all!Why, I am not naturally positive.

I should have proceeded to do so in my very first word, but for this plain consideration-if I am to tell a story I must begin at the beginning; and how is itpossible to begin at the beginning, without beginning at the kettle?It appeared as if there were a sort of match, or trial of skill, you must understand, between the kettleand the Cricket. And this is what led to it, and how it came about
