Ah, Annatoo! In order to a complete revelation, I must needs once again discourse of Annatoo and her pilferings; and to what those pilferings led.

In the simplicity of my soul, I fancied that the dame, so much flattered as she needs must have been, by the confidence I began to repose in her, would now mend her ways, and abstain from her larcenies.

But not so.

She was possessed by some scores of devils, perpetually her to mischief on their own separate behoof, and not less for many of her pranks were of no earthly advantage to, her, present or prospective.
One day the log-reel was missing.

Summon Annatoo.
