`` What has poor Snap been doing ? '' demanded Mrs. Comstock , her eyes beginning to twinkle . `` Digging for woodchucks , like he always does . He gets up at two o'clock to dig for them .

I had to set down the pail to shut the gate so the chickens would n't get into the flower beds , and old Snap stuck his dirty nose into the water and began to lap it down .
