XV SAMMY JAY FINDS THE NEW HOME Johnny Chuck was missed from his old home on the Green Meadows . If he had known how much he was missed , he certainly would have tried to go back for at least a call on his old neighbors . There had been great surprise when it had been discovered that Jimmy Skunk was living in Johnny 's old house , and at first some of the little meadow people were inclined to look at Jimmy a wee bit distrustfully when he told how Johnny Chuck had given away his house . When Johnny sent back word by the Merry Little Breezes that it was true , they believed Jimmy Skunk and forgot the unpleasant things that they had begun to hint at about him . But they one and all thought that Johnny Chuck must be crazy . Yes , Sir , they thought that Johnny Chuck must be crazy . They were sure of it when the Merry Little Breezes brought word of how Johnny had started out to see the world . But everybody was so busy about their own affairs in the beautiful bright spring-time that they could n't spend much time wondering about Johnny Chuck . They missed him every time they passed his old house and then forgot him ; that is , most of the little meadow people did . Peter Rabbit did n't . Peter used to stop every day to gossip with Johnny Chuck and tell him all the news , and now that Johnny Chuck was no longer there , Peter missed him greatly . Jimmy Skunk was always asleep or off somewhere . Besides , he was such a traveler that he knew all the news almost as soon as Peter himself . The Merry Little Breezes told Peter that Johnny Chuck was still on the Green Meadows , hunting for a new home , so Peter made up his mind that just as soon as Johnny got settled , Peter would hunt him up and call . You see , he never dreamed that Johnny would leave the Green Meadows , and he thought that of course the Merry Little Breezes would tell him just where Johnny Chuck 's new house was , whenever it was built . But there is where Peter made a mistake . The Merry Little Breezes are the friends of all the little meadow and forest people , but they would n't be very long if they told everything that they find out . Their merry tongues they guard full well And things they should n't never tell , For long ago they learned the way To keep a secret night and day . And so when they found Johnny Chuck 's new house in the corner of Farmer Brown 's old orchard , they promised Johnny that they would n't tell anybody , and they did n't . So it was a long time before any one else found out what had become of Johnny Chuck , for no one thought of looking in the corner of the old orchard .
The Merry Little Breezes used to come every day and bring Johnny Chuck the news , and he and Polly Chuck would laugh and tickle , as they thought XXXXX Peter Rabbit hunting and hunting and never finding them .
