00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:50,360

00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: Emma Brown, Hello to Iris, and hello to Abe, Allie

10
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 1: and Ramona. Thank you for supporting us. Today we are

11
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: going to continue our story about a leaping goat called Lightfoot.

12
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 1: He got his name from the way he jumps. Lightfoot

13
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: is a young goat who wants to go up onto

14
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 1: the rocks and eat the tender grass that the older

15
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:30,559
Speaker 1: goats are eating. He gets up there, but finds out

16
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: that the older goats don't want the young goats eating

17
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: their sweet grass. At the end of the last chapter,

18
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 1: Lightfoot had made it to the top of the rocks

19
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: and was enjoying some sweet grass when mister Sharporn noticed

20
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: him and started running towards him. Lightfoot tried to get

21
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: away from mister Sharporn but had to jump off the

22
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 1: edge of the rocks Lightfoot. Chapter two, Mister Sharporn was

23
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 1: so surprised at what Lightfoot had done in leaping over

24
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: the edge of the cliff that for a second he

25
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:27,519
Speaker 1: did not know what to do. Indeed, sharp Porn, who

26
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: was running very fast, could hardly stop in time to

27
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 1: save himself from sliding over. Look out there, Lightfoot, he called,

28
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: I didn't mean to make you do that. I wouldn't

29
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: have hurt you very much. Why did you jump? But

30
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:51,919
Speaker 1: Lightfoot could not answer now he was falling down through

31
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 1: the air. Indeed, he himself hardly knew why he had jumped.

32
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 1: He almost wished he had not. Far down below, he

33
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 1: saw the shanty of the widow Maloney, and he saw

34
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: the hard rocks and ground all around it. Somewhere down

35
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: there Lightfoot would land, and he might get hurt, for

36
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,799
Speaker 1: he was not one of the kind of goats that

37
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 1: are said to turn somersaults in the air when they

38
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 1: leap and land on their big curved horns. What's the matter?

39
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: Called Grandpa Bumper, as he heard mister sharp Horn shouting

40
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 1: in his bleating voice, Lightfoot has jumped over the edge,

41
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: called the other goat. Oh, my he'll be hurt, cried

42
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 1: missus Sharporn. You shouldn't have chased him, Sharpie, for sometimes

43
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: she called her goat husband that a a. I didn't

44
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 1: mean to make him jump, went on mister Sharporn. I

45
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: was only trying to scare him away from our feeding place.

46
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: He is too young to come up here. I'm sorry.

47
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:18,239
Speaker 1: Oh what a big jump he made, cried Grandpa Bumper,

48
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: for he knew it was about twenty five feet from

49
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: the rocky edge down to the ground below. If he

50
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: isn't hurt, it will be a wonder. Of course, all

51
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,839
Speaker 1: this took place much more quickly than I can tell it.

52
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: It was only a few seconds. Lightfoot was falling down

53
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: and down, or rather he had jumped down, And as

54
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 1: he left the edge of the rocks and looked below,

55
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 1: he wished he had taken the butting from mister Sharporn,

56
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 1: but it was too late now. And then all of

57
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: a sudden Lightfoot did that which gained him the name

58
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 1: of being a very wise young goat. Below he saw

59
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: the tin and board roof of the Maloney shanty. It

60
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: stood about fifteen feet high, and Lightfoot thought if he

61
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 1: could land on that, it would shorten his big jump,

62
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 1: he would not have to go so far, and then

63
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 1: he could leap down that much more easily. So he

64
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 1: gave himself a shake and a twist in the air,

65
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: as some acrobats do in the circus, and as cats

66
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: and goats do when they jump, and instead of heading

67
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:57,479
Speaker 1: straight for the hard ground, Lightfoot aimed his four feet

68
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: at the roof of the shanty. Just then Missus Maloney

69
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: came out of the door to watch her son going

70
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 1: down the street with the basket of clothes on his wagon. Look, look,

71
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:18,359
Speaker 1: Mike called the widow. Sure, it's a flying goat, lightfoot

72
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 1: is now he's falling down out of the sky. And

73
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 1: indeed it did look so. But before Mike could answer,

74
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: Lightfoot had landed on the roof of the shanty amid

75
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 1: a great clattering of the boards and tin that kept

76
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:41,839
Speaker 1: out the rain. The roof was flat and the boards

77
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 1: were springy, so the goat sort of bounced up and

78
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: down like the man when he falls into a circus net.

79
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 1: And it was this that saved the goat from being hurt.

80
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 1: He was shaken up a bit and jar but he

81
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: had safely jumped from the top of the rocks to

82
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 1: the roof of the shanty. From there it was easy

83
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: to get down, for at one side was a shed

84
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: with a little lower roof, and when Lightfoot had leaped

85
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: to this, he had no trouble in jumping to a

86
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: soft place on the ground just outside the kitchen door.

87
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 1: Well of all things, exclaimed the widow, Maloney, you're the

88
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: jumpiest goat I ever had. You're that light on your feet.

89
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: A clog dancer would admire you. Sure, it's a fine

90
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 1: goat you are. We never had any goat to jump

91
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: the likes of Lightfoot, cried Mike, running back to see

92
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: if his pet was hurt or he loved Lightfoot better

93
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: than any of the others. He patted the shaggy coat

94
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 1: of the animal, and looking at him, saw that he

95
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: was not in the least harmed. Lightfoot felt a little pain,

96
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: but he could not tell Mike about it. Oh, how

97
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 1: did you ever dare do it? Asked Blackie, running up

98
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 1: to Lightfoot with a piece of paste paper in her mouth.

99
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 1: Weren't you afraid? I? I guess I didn't have time

100
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 1: to be answered Lightfoot. I didn't think they'd drive me

101
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:40,959
Speaker 1: away from up there. Mike went on with the washing.

102
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: When he found Lightfoot was not hurt, and Missus Maloney

103
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 1: went back to the shanty. From the edge of the

104
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:55,679
Speaker 1: rocks above the other goats looked down. Say youngster called

105
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 1: mister Sharporn to Lightfoot. I didn't mean to make you

106
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 1: do that. You hurt not a bit, answered Lightfoot, who

107
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 1: was beginning to feel a bit proud of himself. Now

108
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:14,080
Speaker 1: that was a wonderful leap, said missus sharp Porn. Indeed

109
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:19,199
Speaker 1: it was, added Grandpa Bumper. Of course I have made

110
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: such leaps as that when I was younger, but I

111
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: can't any more. For a kid that was very good Lightfoot,

112
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,679
Speaker 1: he won't be a kid much longer, said Missus sharp Porn.

113
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 1: Then she said something in a low bah to her

114
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: goat husband. Why yes, answered mister sharp Porn. I guess

115
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: after this big leap he did to day Lightfoot can

116
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: come up among us other goats. Now you may come

117
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: up to the top of the rocks whenever you like,

118
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,080
Speaker 1: he went on to Lightfoot. We won't chase you away

119
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 1: any more. And may Blackie come up with me and

120
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:07,559
Speaker 1: eat the sweet grass, asked Lightfoot, having a kind thought

121
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:12,559
Speaker 1: for his little friend. Can she climb that far? Asked

122
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 1: Grandpa Bumper, I'll help her, offered Lightfoot. Then you may

123
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: both come, went on the old grandfather goat who ruled

124
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 1: over the rest. Your grass down there is getting pretty dry,

125
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,559
Speaker 1: he went on, come up whenever you want to, and Lightfoot,

126
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 1: don't try any more such risky jumps, as that you

127
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:44,839
Speaker 1: might break a leg. So after all, you see, Lightfoot's

128
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,559
Speaker 1: big jump turned out to be a good thing for

129
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 1: him and Blackie. After Lightfoot had rested a bit, he

130
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: and Blackie went up to the top of the rocks,

131
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 1: Lightfoot helping Blackie over the rough place, and soon all

132
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 1: the widow Maloney's animals were cropping the sweet grass on

133
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:13,319
Speaker 1: top of the high rocks. Lightfoot sleep was talked about

134
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: among the goats for many a day After that, the

135
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 1: goat grew bigger and stronger, and every chance he found

136
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,720
Speaker 1: he practiced jumping, until he could do almost as well

137
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 1: as mister Sharphorn, who was the best sleeper of all

138
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 1: the goats in Shantytown. Day after day, Lightfoot would practice

139
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 1: jumping and climbing among the rocks, sometimes alone and sometimes

140
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:49,559
Speaker 1: with Blackie. One day, when he had made a very

141
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 1: hard jump from one rock to another, he heard some

142
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 1: boy and girl talk in the road in front of

143
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 1: the widow shanty. Down, Lightfoot saw a small cart drawn

144
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 1: by a pony, and seated in the cart was a man,

145
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:12,959
Speaker 1: and with him were two children. Oh look, George called

146
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 1: the little girl. That's the nice goat we saw when

147
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 1: we were going to the circus the day we got

148
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 1: back Tinkle our pony. So it is, Mabel answered the boy.

149
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:28,080
Speaker 1: Could we ever have a goat? Daddy? He asked his father,

150
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 1: as the pony cart stopped. Oh, I guess not, said

151
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 1: the man. Tinkle is enough for you. Then to missus Maloney,

152
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 1: who came to the front gate, he said, that's a

153
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:44,839
Speaker 1: fine goat you have, sure, and you may well say

154
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,680
Speaker 1: that you're the gentleman who went past here a few

155
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 1: days ago, aren't you. Yes, I was on my way

156
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: to the circus, and it was there we got back

157
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: my children's pony, which had been stolen. Well, I'm glad

158
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: you have him back, said the widow Maloney, with a

159
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: twinkle in her kind irish blue eyes. You should have

160
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 1: seen Lightfoot leap from the top of the rocks to

161
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 1: the roof of my shanty one day. Did he really

162
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 1: do that, asked George. He did, and missus Maloney told

163
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 1: them about it. Meanwhile, Tinkle, the trick pony of whom

164
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 1: I have told you about, was having a little talk

165
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:35,840
Speaker 1: with Lightfoot. Were you really stolen? Asked Lightfoot. When Tinkle

166
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: told some of his adventures, Indeed I was. And did

167
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: you really jump from the top of those rocks? I did,

168
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 1: answered the leaping goat, holding his head high and feeling

169
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 1: very proud. That's more than I can do. Though I

170
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: can't do circus tricks, said Tinkle. There's been a book

171
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 1: written about me and my tree and adventures. You don't

172
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 1: tell me, cried lightfootboot what's a book? Before Tinkle could answer,

173
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 1: mister Farley, the father of George and Mabel, called goodbye

174
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: to the widow Maloney, and drove on with the children

175
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 1: in the pony cart. Goodbye, called Tinkle to Lightfoot. If

176
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 1: you ever get to the circus, ask Tom Tom the

177
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: Jolly Elephant, or Mapple the Merry Monkey about me, I will,

178
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 1: promised Lightfoot, though I never expect to go to a circus.

179
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 1: Sure they were nice little children, said missus Maloney. And

180
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: it was a fine pony cart they had. How would

181
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 1: you like to pull a stylish cart like that? Lightfoot?

182
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 1: She asked, as she went back in the shanty to

183
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: finish her washing. For many days after this, Lightfoot lived

184
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 1: around the sham, learning to leap and do other things

185
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: that goats have to do in this world. And one

186
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 1: day he had an adventure that was not exactly pleasant.

187
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 1: Lightfoot was getting to be quite a big goat now,

188
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 1: and sometimes he wandered away farther than he had ever

189
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 1: gone before. Two or three streets from where the Maloney

190
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: Shanty was built ran an electric car line. At first,

191
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 1: Lightfoot did not know what it was, but the other

192
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 1: goats told him that people rode in the strange yellow cars,

193
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:44,480
Speaker 1: which went rolling along in such an unusual way on

194
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 1: the shiny rails, a bell clanging in front. One afternoon,

195
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 1: Lightfoot wandered down to the trolley tracks. An ash wagon

196
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 1: had passed a little while before, and the goat had

197
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 1: seen a tin can fall from it with a big

198
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 1: red tomato paper pasted on it. I'll get that paper

199
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 1: and eat off the paste, thought Lightfoot. The can was

200
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 1: in the middle of the tracks. Lightfoot began nosing it,

201
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 1: tearing off the paper and eating small pieces. It tasted

202
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 1: very good to him. Suddenly there was a clanging of

203
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 1: a bell, and along came a car headed straight for Lightfoot.

204
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 1: The goat looked up bother, he exclaimed to himself, You'll

205
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 1: have to wait until I finish my lunch. He went on,

206
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 1: I'm not going to hurry out of the way for you.

207
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: I'm as good as you. Lightfoot wanted his own way.

208
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 1: You see, but goats have no rights on a trolley track.

209
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 1: Lightfoot did not know this. The motorman clanged his bell

210
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,399
Speaker 1: and cried, get off the tracks you go to, or

211
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 1: I'll bump into you. Now. Lightfoot knew very little, indeed

212
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 1: about trolley cars. He did not know how strong they were,

213
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 1: And so as he stood between the rails chewing the

214
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: paper from the can and saw the big yellow car

215
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: clanging its way toward him, Lightfoot stamped his hoofs, shook

216
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:38,120
Speaker 1: his horns, and said to himself, well, do as you please,

217
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 1: but I'm not going to move until I finish eating.

218
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 1: I guess I can butt as hard as you get

219
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 1: out of there, called the motorman again, but Lightfoot did

220
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:56,640
Speaker 1: not understand. The car slowed up a little, but still

221
00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 1: came on bump into him. Called the conductor to a motorman,

222
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: and the next instant the fender of the street car

223
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:11,679
Speaker 1: bumped Lightfoot's lowered horns and tossed him to one side

224
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 1: over into a ditch full of weeds. Oh dear, I

225
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 1: am hurt this time for shore, thought poor Lightfoot. I

226
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 1: thought I could knock that car off the tracks, but

227
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:34,679
Speaker 1: instead it knocked me off. Oh dear. For a few seconds,

228
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 1: after Lightfoot had been tossed into the ditch full of weeds,

229
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 1: the goat could not get up or even move. The

230
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 1: trolley car clanged on its way down the tracks. What happened,

231
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: asked some of the passengers. Oh, a goat got on

232
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 1: the track, and the motorman had to move him off,

233
00:18:55,240 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 1: exclaimed the conductor. I hope you didn't hurt him, said

234
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 1: a little girl sitting in the front seat to the motorman.

235
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,880
Speaker 1: No I didn't, answered the motorman, But I just had

236
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:11,160
Speaker 1: to get him out of the way. I would never

237
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 1: hurt any animal, for my children have a dog and

238
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,680
Speaker 1: a cat, and I love them as much as they do.

239
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 1: The goat really butted into me as much as I

240
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 1: did into him, And this, in a way was true.

241
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:33,679
Speaker 1: If Lightfoot had stood still and had not tried to

242
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 1: hit the fender of the car with his horns, he

243
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 1: would have been easily pushed to one side, but he

244
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 1: had to learn his lesson, and like the lessons boys

245
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: and girls have to learn, all are not easy or

246
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:55,919
Speaker 1: pleasant ones. So poor Lightfoot lay groaning in the ditch

247
00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 1: among the weeds as the trolley car went on. At

248
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,719
Speaker 1: least he groaned as much as a goat can groan,

249
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 1: making a sort of bleating noise. Oh dear, he thought,

250
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,959
Speaker 1: never again will I do such a thing as this.

251
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 1: I will stick to jumping, for I can do that

252
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 1: and not be hurt. I wonder if any of my

253
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:26,439
Speaker 1: legs or my horns are broken. Lightfoot, lying on his

254
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,719
Speaker 1: side in the ditch, shook his head. His horns seemed

255
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:34,399
Speaker 1: to be all right. Then he tried to scramble to

256
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:38,919
Speaker 1: his feet. He felt several pains and aches, but to

257
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 1: his delight, he found that he could get up, though

258
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 1: he was a bit shaky. Well, none of my legs

259
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 1: are broken, anyhow, said Lightfoot to himself. But I hurt

260
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 1: all over. I guess I'll go home home to Lightfoot

261
00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: meant the rocks around the shanty of the widow and her.

262
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 1: As Lightfoot limped from the ditch to the road, he

263
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: passed a puddle of water. He could see himself in

264
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 1: this as you boys and girls can see yourselves in

265
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 1: a mirror. The sight that met his eyes made Lightfoot gasp. Oh,

266
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:24,160
Speaker 1: I would never know myself, he said sadly. Well, might

267
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,399
Speaker 1: he say that one of his legs was cut and

268
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,920
Speaker 1: his side was scratched and bruised. I am a terrible

269
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: looking sight, he said. He walked along, limping until he

270
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 1: came within sight of the shanty. From behind it came Blackie. Why, Lightfoot,

271
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,160
Speaker 1: she cried in surprise. Where in the world have you been.

272
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:51,680
Speaker 1: I've been looking everywhere for you. What what has happened

273
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 1: to you? Aye? I tried to butt a trolley car

274
00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: off the tracks, said the boy. Go. I was eating

275
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,120
Speaker 1: some pasty paper off a tomato can that fell from

276
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:09,400
Speaker 1: an ash wagon. When the car came along, I wouldn't

277
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:11,919
Speaker 1: get out of the way, and well, it knocked me

278
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 1: into the ditch. Oh dear, I'm so sorry, said Blackie sympathetically.

279
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 1: Come on up to the top of the rocks and

280
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,160
Speaker 1: you can roll in the soft grass. Maybe that will

281
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 1: make you feel better. No, I don't believe I could

282
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: climb to the top of the rocks now, said Lightfoot.

283
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 1: I am too sore and stiff. I'll just lie down

284
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 1: here in the shade, do, said the kind blackie, And

285
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 1: I'll bring you some nice brown paper. I found goats

286
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,439
Speaker 1: love brown paper almost as much as they do the

287
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 1: kind that has paste on it, and that comes off cans,

288
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 1: for brown paper is made from things that goats like

289
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 1: to eat, though, of course, horse it is not good

290
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:06,880
Speaker 1: for girls and boys any more than hay or grass. Well,

291
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:11,159
Speaker 1: what's the matter with you, Lightfoot, asked Grandpa Bumper, the

292
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,679
Speaker 1: old goat, as he came scrambling down the rocks a

293
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,679
Speaker 1: little later to get a drink of water from the

294
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 1: pail near the kitchen door. What's happened to you? I

295
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 1: got in the way of a trolley car, said Lightfoot,

296
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:31,159
Speaker 1: and he told what had happened. Well, let that be

297
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: a lesson to you, said the old goat man. You

298
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:38,919
Speaker 1: are a strong goat boy, and a fine jumper. But

299
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 1: the strongest goat amongst us is not able to butt

300
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:46,680
Speaker 1: against a trolley car. I once heard of an elephant

301
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:51,359
Speaker 1: trying to butt a locomotive with his head. I wonder

302
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 1: if he is any relation to Tum tum, said Lightfoot,

303
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,679
Speaker 1: who was beginning to feel a little better now, who

304
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:03,439
Speaker 1: is Tom Tum, asked Grandpa Bumper. Oh, he is a

305
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 1: jolly elephant who lives in a circus. I met a

306
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 1: trick pony named Tinkle who once was in the circus,

307
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 1: and Tinkle told me all about Tum Tum. I'm sure

308
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:19,919
Speaker 1: I don't know about Tum Tum, went on the Old Goat.

309
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,760
