Well done, well done, George.

It fell exactly where you said it would.

That's the art, you see, young fellow.

You've got to know right where she'll fall.

Otherwise the branches might get caught on another tree.

They might drop on somebody's head, mightn't it? They can't last a surprise.

Knock them clean through to Australia, I reckon.

So there you are.

You're supposed to be helping me clean out the stable.

I'm just fed up of being sent to look for you.

Now look.

Well, thanks for giving me a hand, young lad.

But I reckon you'd best be off home now, eh?

Come on.

Girls.

Hello,

Frances. Hello.

I'm glad I met you. It saved me a trip.

Oh, why's that?

It's my birthday tomorrow.

Daddy's giving me a garden party.

I was on my way to the invitation.

It's not too short notice.

You can come.

Oh, I'd love to. Of course, I'll have to ask my father.

It'll be such fun.

Mummy's bought me an absolutely divine dress. I can't wait to wear it.

Hello. You know Ned, don't you?

Yes, of course.

Well, the party's from three till 7 .30.

Must go.

Got lots to do.

Bye for now.

Bye.

Come on.

What did she want? To invite me to her party.

Oh, how awfully nice. But I'm afraid I have another engagement.

To clean up the stable.

No,

I have no objection to the party, but I have a patient going into hospital this

afternoon, and I shall have to go and see him tomorrow.

Dear, I'm afraid I was planning to go into town to do some shopping with Dr.

Gordon. There won't be anybody to take you.

Well, I suppose I could put it off.

Well, it'll be over by 7 .30, so I won't be home late.

Just a minute. Ned, are you going to this party?

No, thank you.

Ah, then you and Black Beauty can take Jenny in, bring her back, and Amy and I

will go in with Farmer Jackson.

All right.

Oh,

that's lovely.

Come on, Beauty. What am I going to wear?

They'll all be in their best clothes and new dresses. Well, there's your party

dress. Amy, it's three years old.

Oh, well, come on. Let's see what we can find then.

It makes me look like a little girl.

What about the blue one?

I tore the skirt, playing cowboys and Indians.

Now, look, young ladies do not play cowboys and Indians, and certainly not

their best dresses.

It's no good. I can't go. I've got nothing to wear.

Well, look, I've got some lace and some ribbons. Maybe I can do something with

it. By tomorrow?

With... Doctor!

Yes, what is it?

Well, it's the party.

You see, as is at the base, it will be rather a grand affair, and Jenny's

worried that she won't have the right thing to wear.

Amy, I have this patient to transfer to hospital and several other people to

see.

I may be a little late home.

Good evening, Amy.

Oh, there you are, Doctor. I'll get your supper now.

In a moment, I'll see to Beauty first.

What's that?

That's, um, a secret.

Women's in your tail.

Aren't you going to help me any more, then?

The party's nothing to do with me.

Well, maybe they'll give you some cake or some ice cream.

Oh, how awfully nice.

I can keep it.

It'll be ready when you are.

Thank you.

Didn't you want to go to the party either?

Why are you trying to make me go back then?

Well, I'm not going back.

Not just yet anyway.

So you can't make me.

Well, come on then.

We've got a long time before we have to take Jenny to her party.

May as well go and see George.

Well, wear a shawl.

Nobody will notice.

Don't you like it? Oh, it's very nice.

If you don't like it, you don't have to wear it. Amy!

What's that?

Oh, I don't know.

Look inside.

Don't blame me. Your father bought it for you. Oh.

No, I'm not going back till it's time to leave, Beauty.

You promised to take Jenny to the party. You mustn't let her down now.

Of course I won't. What are you doing?

Well, I was fixing to have a go with this old three -year.

Well, it looks like hard work, though, don't it? Well, couldn't I help you?

No, I don't reckon so.

No use to anyone.

Not even you.

Well, I'll tell you what I'll do.

You do exactly as I say.

Right?

Have you tied the rope round the tree yet, Ned?

Yeah, that's it.

What's that for?

Well, you cut a notch in the trunk, you see, young fellow.

And then you saw through from the back.

And when you reach the notch...

She'll fall right where I want her to.

In that small clearing there, you see?

Now, stand back, lad.

You look very pretty, my darling.

Are you sure, Father?

It's quite, quite perfect.

Hey, hey, be there, young Ned.

Now, let me have a look at her.

I see. You'd better stand back, lad.

Right?

Hey! Hey, what's that pony doing down there?

Jonah! Hey, Jonah!

Hey! Get out of the car!

George?

I can't leave him, beauty.

Get the doctor.

Get Dr. Gordon.

Go on, boy.

Quick as you can.

All right, George.

Don't worry, Ned will be back any minute. But I'm afraid we can't wait any

longer. Have a lovely day. I will. Thank you, Amy. You can tell us all about it

when you get back.

Goodbye, Ginny.

All right, Jonah.

It wasn't your fault.

I should have been watching you.

Then it wouldn't have happened.

All right, George.

Black Beauty will be here with Dr. Gordon in a minute.

Beauty, at last! Where have you been? A witness!

Oh, well, never mind. We'll have to hurry. It's almost four o 'clock.

Come on.

What is it?

Is something wrong?

What is it? We're late.

Is it Ned?

Has something happened?

All right, all right. I'll come with you.

Jenny? Ned?

Where's... Where's Dr. Gordon? Well, he's gone into town. Why? What is it?

What's happened?

It's George.

He's hurt.

Hurt bad.

Oh, no.

He had no time to get out of the way.

Well, he's still alive.

Maybe he's unconscious.

That's probably just as well he won't be feeling anything.

We're going to have to do something about that head.

I can't move this tree. It won't move. I've tried everything.

Look, Beauty can do it. It's partly held up by those broken branches over there.

We should be able to lift it enough for you to drag George out.

But if the tree rolls over it, I'll crush George.

Well, look, we'll just have to try it.

I'll get some rope.

Right.

Beauty, come on, come here.

Come on, boy, pull. Pull harder. Come on. Come on, pull.

Come on, beauty. Pull.

Come on.

Come on, boy.

Is it moving?

Ned, is it moving?

It's moving a bit.

Keep pulling, Jenny.

A bit more.

Come on!

A bit more, Jenny.

One leg's all right, I think, but the other's broken.

We're going to have to find something to tie it up with.

Jenny! I thought you weren't coming. I'm sorry, Emily. I can't stay. I've only

got time to explain what happened.

But that's all right, my dear.

But it's not.

Look.

But that's perfect.

Jenny!

Jenny, how very clever.

Come on, it's time for the judging.

Come on, everybody.

And Miss Jenny Gordon, first prize for her beggar on horseback.

Well done, Jenny.

Do you mean you were dressed all right for the party like that?

Yes. Isn't it silly?

had forgotten to tell me. It was a fancy dress party.

I explained to Mr. Baisley what had happened and he introduced me as a

horseback.

Beauty and I won first prize.

Oh.

Dear Amy, these are for you for helping me with my costume.

Oh.

Thank you.

How's George?

Well, I've set his leg. He's going to stay with us until it's better.

He'll be all right, thanks to you. And Beauty.

Come on.
