But this SOMEBODY was not the little girl named Judy.This SOMEBODY was a little old lady named Miss Samantha Littlefield.

Miss Samantha lived in a very large tidy house in the middle of a very large tidy garden,and Miss Samantha was very glad to have Topsy belong to her because she had no one else belonging to her such as children or grand-children or nephews or nieces or people like that.

Miss Samantha gave Topsy a new collar with Topsy written on it,and a new leash and a woolly blue sweater for cold days and some galoshes for wet days.

But Topsy hid her leash and tore her blue sweater and CHEWED her galoshes.

Miss Samantha gave Topsy a large blue dish to eat out of,but when Topsy tried to eat her supper,Splash!went Topsy's long ears into the dish,and out spattered her supper all over the floor and all over Topsy,so Miss Samantha tied up Topsy's ears.

Miss Samantha tied up Topsy's ears with a red ribbon,but then Topsy would not eat out of her new blue dish.Topsy liked the dust bin better.

Miss Samantha gave Topsy a beautiful new bed with a green pillow to sleep on and a yellow blanket to sleep under.

But Topsy liked Miss Samantha's bed better.
