[Ag-eq] Answers to rabbit quiz

[Jewel]

Petere disappeared and, I suspect, fell prey to a predator:  a dog being the likely candidate.  Paul 
made s secdond break for freedom, but, snesible rabbit that he is, he went into the same garden, and 
was caught by the same man as when he made his first assay for the uncertain life of a wild rabbit!
