What's the matter out there?
gpt
Skyrocket's gone!
human
Well, that's all right, said Uncle Toby.
gpt
I suppose he went out early to get up an appetite for breakfast.

But how could he get out, Uncle Toby? asked Ted, as Mr. Bardeen came into the kitchen where the dog had been put for the night.
gpt
How could he get out? There isn't a door or window open, and he hasn't jumped through any of the window glass, as he did once to get to me when he was shut up by mistake.
human
Hum! murmured Uncle Toby, thoughtfully.
gpt
Are you sure he's gone, Ted?
human
Well, he isn't around and he doesn't come when I call him, the boy answered.
gpt
He must be gone.
