Book Description
Excerpt from John Gay; Or, Work for Boys, Vol. 3 of 4 At last, one day, it occurred to John that he might make Benny a somewhat larger pond, by using the spout itself for this purpose. The spout was pretty wide at the back end, and was about two feet long. It was laid upon the platform of the pump, and made to slope downward somewhat, so as to carry off the water. The back end, and the two sides of the spout, were enclosed by means of narrow pieces of board nailed on to them, but the lower end was left open to allow the water to flow out. John contrived to block up this lower end with a piece of wood placed under it, so as to make it level, and then to make a kind of dam across the opening by means of a short board, which he cut as nearly as possible to the right dimensions, and then filled in the interstices with clay, so as to make it nearly water-tight. "There, Benny," said John, "now you can pump that full of water, and you will have quite a large pond. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
