Excerpt from The Adventures of a Brownie, as Told to My Child
So there was not even a cricket singing in the silent house when Brownie put his head out of his coal-cellar door, which, to his sur prise, he found open. Old Cook used to lock it every night, but the young Cook had left that key, and the kitchen and pantry keys too, all dangling in the lock, so that any thief might have got in, and wandered all over the house without being found out.
