Jimmy Skunk in "Ryder Rabbit Plans A Joke

That is why so many people are forever getting into trouble. He won't keep still. No, Sir, he won't keep still unless he is made to. Once let him get started there is no knowing where he will stop. Ryder Rabbit had just seen Jimmy Skunk disappear inside an old barrel, lying on its side at the top of the hill, and at once the Imp of Mischief began2 to whisper to Ryder. Of course Ryder shouldn't have listened. Certainly not. But he did. You know Ryder dearly loves a joke when it is on some one else. He sat right where he was and watched to see if Jimmy would come out of the barrel.
