The sightof it shot a blaze of hope through his despair! He stopped at once, dropped his rod, and, putting up his umbrella, laid it on the ground. It was a large cotton one of the Gamp description. Under the shelter ofit he stepped quietly into the ditch, which was not much more thanknee-deep, with very little water in it. Placing the umbrella in such a position that it came between himself andthe bull, he laid himself flat down in the drain. The opening was fartoo narrow to admit his broad sho...ulders, except when turned sidewise. The same treatment was not applicable to other parts of his person, but, by dint of squeezing and collapsing, he got down, nestled under thebank, and lay still. On came the bull till it reached the basket, which, with a deft toss, ithurled into the air and sent the silvery treasure flying. A moment moreand it went head foremost into the umbrella. Whether it was surprisedat finding its enemy so light and unsubstantial, or at the slipping ofone of its feet into the drain, we cannot tell, but the result was thatit came down and turned a complete somersault over the drain, carryingthe umbrella along with it in its mad career!
