The Project Gutenberg EBook of The Adventures of Lightfoot the Deer, by Thornton W.

Peter in a faint, frightened-sounding voice and leaped to one side before it entered his foolish little head that Lightfoot was just pretending.

Unseen and unheard, he had stolen up and had overheard what Peter and Lightfoot had said.

So, standing motionless behind a tangle of fallen trees, Lightfoot listened and watched.

Knowing just where the hunter was made it easier for Lightfoot to know what to do.

It came from behind Lightfoot and danced on towards the hunter with the terrible gun.

So long as Lightfoot could get that scent, he would know where the hunter was, though he could neither see nor hear him.

If he had remained where Sammy Jay had found him, the hunter might have come within shooting distance before Lightfoot could have located him.

Green Forest, stepping with the greatest care to avoid snapping a stick underfoot, searching with keen eye every thicket and likely hiding-place for a glimpse of Lightfoot, and studying the ground for traces to show that Lightfoot had been there.

Lightfoot the Deer that morning on which the hunting season opened you might have thought that Lightfoot was hunting the hunter instead of the hunter hunting Lightfoot.

Lightfoot knew all this, for he was wise in the ways of Lightfoot and of the other little people of the Green Forest.

Lightfoot had been hiding, he worked around it slowly and with the greatest care, holding his terrible gun ready to use instantly should Lightfoot leap out.

The experience of other years had taught Lightfoot much of the ways of hunters and not one of the things he had learned about them was forgotten.

There was only one direction in which it was safe for Lightfoot to move, and that was the direction from which the Merry Little Breezes were blowing.
