He can only get dirty at that . We 'll have our teas over before we call him to his . Dora can have hers with us , but I would never dare to let Davy sit down at the table with all the Aids here . '' When Anne went to call the Aids to tea she found that Dora was not in the parlor . Mrs. Jasper Bell said Davy had come to the front door and called her out . A hasty consultation with Marilla in the pantry resulted in a decision to let both children have their teas together later on . Tea was half over when the dining room was invaded by a forlorn figure . Marilla and Anne stared in dismay , the Aids in amazement . Could that be Dora ... that sobbing nondescript in a drenched , dripping dress and hair from which the water was streaming on Marilla 's new coin-spot rug ? `` 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 XXXXX made me hopping mad .
