`` Dora , what has happened to you ? '' cried Anne , with a guilty glance at Mrs. Jasper Bell , whose family was said to be the only one in the world in which accidents never occurred . `` Davy made me walk the pigpen fence , '' wailed Dora . `` I did n't want to but he called me a fraid-cat . And I fell off into the pigpen and my dress got all dirty and the pig runned right over me . My dress was just awful but Davy said if I 'd stand under the pump he 'd wash it clean , and I did and he pumped water all over me but my dress ai n't a bit cleaner and my pretty sash and shoes is all spoiled . '' Anne did the honors of the table alone for the rest of the meal while Marilla went upstairs and redressed Dora in her old clothes . Davy was caught and sent to bed without any supper . Anne went to his room at twilight and talked to him seriously ... a method in which she had great faith , not altogether unjustified by results . She told him she felt very badly over his conduct . `` I feel sorry now myself , '' admitted Davy , `` but the trouble is I never feel sorry for doing things till after I 've did them . Dora would n't help me make pies , cause she was afraid of messing her clo'es and that made me hopping mad . I s ` pose Paul Irving would n't have made HIS sister walk a pigpen fence if he knew she 'd fall in ? '' `` No , he would never dream of such a thing . Paul is a perfect little gentleman . '' Davy screwed his eyes tight shut and seemed to meditate on this for a time . Then he crawled up and put his arms about Anne 's neck , snuggling his flushed little face down on her shoulder . `` Anne , do n't you like me a little bit , even if I ai n't a good boy like Paul ? '' `` Indeed I do , '' said Anne sincerely . Somehow , it was impossible to help liking Davy .
`` But I 'd like you better still XXXXX you were n't so naughty . ''
