At first that sound was very , very faint , but as Farmer Brown 's boy listened , it grew louder and clearer . Suddenly Farmer Brown 's boy leaped up excitedly . `` That 's Bowser ! '' he cried . `` As sure as I live that 's good old Bowser ! I would know that voice among a million ! '' He leaped from the sleigh and tied the horse . Then he climbed over the fence and began to run across the snow-covered fields . He could tell from the sound in what direction Bowser was running . He could tell from the appearance of the country about where Reddy Fox would be likely to lead Bowser , and he ran for a place which he felt sure Reddy would be likely to pass . Louder and louder sounded the great voice of Bowser , and faster and faster ran Farmer Brown 's boy to reach that place before Bowser should pass . The louder that great voice sounded , the more absolutely certain Farmer Brown 's boy became that it was the voice of Bowser , and a great joy filled his heart . At last he reached an old road . He felt certain that Reddy would follow that road . So he hid behind an old stone wall on the edge of it . He did not have long to wait . A red form appeared around a turn in the old road , running swiftly . Then it stopped and stood perfectly still .
Of course it was Reddy XXXXX .
