But Polly had chosen a spot close to a road that wound down across the Green Meadows . Johnny shook his head doubtfully , but he began to dig . This time , however , he kept one eye on Polly Chuck , and the minute he found that she was wandering off , he stopped digging and chuckled as he watched her .
